How Do I Fix A Loose Rubber Grip From The Tuning Knob; Where Should I Go For Repairs - Icom IC-746 Faq

The IC-746 Service Manual does have an adjustment procedure for the NB on page 5-10.
Icom Tech Support provided W7GJ with a PDF copy of that page around Jun-25-2001. That
PDF file is now available from several places.

How do I fix a loose rubber grip from the tuning knob?

Very few people have had this problem. These are the suggestions people have made to
remedy the problem.
• Use a large rubber band
• Use a glue stick
• Use electrical tape
• Use rubber cement
• beware that RC might deteriorate rubber
• leave set hole uncovered to allow front panel removal
• maybe tack just a few places to allow ring removal?
