[R-390] backlash on URM-25

[Bob Young]

My URM-25 bought from a vendor who sells them on epay, it came with some back lash and it has gotten worse, I have tried the fix (making the gears tighter with the adjustment) and it helps but there is a point of diminishing returns where it gets so hard to turn that it is useless, I even sent it back once (after shorting out something from my "fix" and got congtatulated on my "fix" or in other words don't send it back to us, haha! This is the only flaw I've found, the backlash is terrible on high frequencies, so I guess I will be looking for a better frequency generator or another one without backlash,
