I use to own a ft757. I think you will find that the brass bushing has
frozen on the tuning shaft. You can take the tuning dial out (somewhat
difficult) and carefuly unfreeze(wd40 etc) then relub. Been there,
done that. Also Yaesu will sell you a new dial if you donot want to
"renew".

Does anyone have a hint on what might be binding up my Yaesu 757 GX II freq
dial.
It worked for a while from ebay purchase and then stiffened up and would not
turn to
change frequencies. The mic' buttons work ok to change frequencies, but
I am not familiar with the mechanics of the dial. I had taken the front
panel apart once
and saw no problems... put it back together and it worked ..... a while.
Any helps appreciated. email at my call arrr.net or post reply retired
and read lots of newy groups
Thanks 73 WB9SMX
