I recently purchased a FT-1000 MP Field from HRO in Atlanta and =
exchanged the rig because the shuttle jog ring switch would not detent =
back to the home position. HRO sent me a second rig and it has the same =
problem. Both rigs were new out of the box. The problem occurs when the =
ring switch is rotated CCW and the switch does not return back to it's =
centered position. The frequency keeps shifting down. The problem is =
intermittent and is most noticeable when operating CW, AM or RTTY. The =
cause appears to be the improper position of the encoder switch. With =
the jog ring sitting in the centered position the switch is off center =
to the right and starts tuning down in frequency.=20

If anyone has heard of this problem before and has any suggestions for a =
solution I'd appreciate an email.
