* The volume knob is super glued to the shaft.
* The control works BUT the entire shaft comes out.
* The RF Gain knob is also super glued on but will not
remove from the unit.
* The tuning encoder is working but glitchy.
It will jump frequency while tuning occassionally.
* The unit has some minor wear around the squelch control.
* There is some rubbing on the top, from setting something on it.
* No major cosmetic issues.
* Just normal wear and tear on the unit.
