[R-390] Slippage when tuning

[Tisha Hayes]

That really does sound like gear backlash. Are the backlash springs on the
associated gears under 1-2 teeth of tension?

The described effect of being a bit challenging to tune; eg.. tuning an SSB
signal. Really does sound like gear backlash.

There is also a spring on the Oldham coupler that should keep you from
having backlash there. I mention that because the coupler does have "slop"
on the motion if the spring is not in place.

that success or failure in competitive activities exhibits no tendency to
be commensurate with innate capacity, but that a considerable element of
the unpredictable must invariably be taken into account." -- George Orwell
