sparingly with the knob off the shaft, l!
et harden
 for two or three days and put back on. If there is a set screw don't
tighten it too much. For certain heavy band switch applications I think
that if the knob is cracked and a 'lot ' of turning power is required, the
knob will not hold. On some of my Yaesus there are band switches that
require (in my humble opinion) way too much 'turning power' . In this case
I play with the spring that presses against the detent balls. I force the
spring away from the ball repetitively and after a few attempts the
"detent' will become easier to overcome. Be carefully with this
technique as there is no going back if you 'unbend' the spring too much.
But it will make life easier for the old boat anchor and its band switch
knobs.Whew!!73PeterVE2FAR----------------------------------------------------------------------On
