Has anyone other then me had one of the inter knobs for the RF or AF =
gain break? Came in, turned on the rig and reached up and turned the RF =
gain down and low and behold the little knob fell off the shaft. It was =
broken right where one of the set screws was located. I see there is no =
brass bushing in the knob for the setscrew to be threaded into. Do you =
know where some better quality ones can be purchased?
