FT101ZD Dial and Digital Counter Misaligned
|
Hello all. I am BRAND new to the FT101 so be patient with me. I'm new to radios of this vintage in general and just got this radio yesterday and haven't had time to play much with it but I'm pretty sure something is
See picture. The sub-dial does not show the correct number as what is indicated on the digital counter. Does something need aligned here? Is this easily fixable by someone like me or does it have to go to a shop? Or does it even really matter? The digital counter appears to be accurate. I find signals where I expect them to be on the digital counter.? Any help is appreciated! Thanks! |

Hi Michael, Not to worry, the metal ring on the vfo knob behind the plastic portion rotates with the analog dial. Hold the metal ring firmly and turn the plastic knob so the analog is correct. It will likely need netting in with each mode change. Most just use the digital display. It looks like you have a MKlll version, congrats! That is a nice rig, I have one here.? 73 Don ve3ids?
