[1000mp] Clarifier again

[Bill Parry]

I am again having problems with the clarifier on my FT1000MP. I had sent my
radio to have it repaired for two or three things, a while back, and they
cleaned the control. It seemed to be ok but the problem has returned. - I
should have had it replaced then!

I know that this has been discussed before and I recall the idea of using a
high speed drill and running the control back and forth. This seems a little
heavy handed. I, also, remember that some don't use this control preferring
to just use the second receiver. (I do use it and want it to work.) I
thought that I would just order a replacement, and do it myself.

Can anyone tell me what I am getting into?
