[R-390] Green Gear

[chacuff]

Hey Folks,

        I have heard so much about the "Green Gear" over the years that I 
figured it was absolutely essential.  I'm in the middle of an RF deck 
teardown and all I can see the thing does is keep the counter sync'd to the 
gear train.  If one is going to remove the counter to disassemble the gear 
train or even to just give it a good wash down it's going to get out of sync 
anyway.  I would guess one could spin the gear train around to align the 
cams with the marks, put the counter back on set to 2.000 and it would be 
good to go right?  Of course I didn't address the bandswitch.....I'll look 
at that a little closer!

Am I missing something??

If not I'll be pulling things down tomorrow and I'll put the green gear back 
in it's storage spot!

Cecil....
