Bill, make sure the dial scale isn't "rubbing" on the shadow mask. There should be a small gap between the two. It shouldn't be moving unless you force it. I understand it can move when shifting the radio from place to place. I have very slight movement in any of my shadow mask, and I have to make it happen. Sounds like this one seriously warped.
