I recently bought a Hallicrafters S-27 & wonder if there is anyone here who is familiar w/these recievers. The tuning knob on mine is very loose, & I  wonder if there was a bushing or bearing thru the front panel that is missing on mine. Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated. -Sandy G.

No bushing, Sandy. Oversized hole in the front panel where the shaft 
passes through. I have a -27 and RBK-13 (S-36). Both are tight. I'll 
take a lookover the weekend and see what it might be. Probably the knob 
itself or where the shaft attaches to the drive assembly.

Fun little(!) rig for VHF.
