I had a problem with the zero adjust mechanism on one of my receivers, it
doesn't dis-engage the drive so I can zero out. I have since purchased a new
zero adjust mechanism from Epay (like $8.00) and will install it the next
time I drop the faceplate. After contemplation I may find that it is the
clutch mechanism that the pressure plate drives.

Good thing I have a spare RF deck and all of the gearing. I wouldn't mind
replacing one gear but tearing the entire drive train apart is something
that is not just an afternoon project.

I have seen that gear make it's appearance every few weeks on the ePay
place. Usually it is in the $5 - $15 range. Maybe you can find someone who
has a tremendous pile of blue-striper's who can pull one for you.

If you can, gradually accumulate a complete set of spare modules. Then you
can make mods/upgrades on the radio, one module at a time. This is also a
tremendous benefit in troubleshooting.
