Well the WD-40 freed it up,but there is still some contact inside the mech somewhere and i can't tell where it is.
I can hold the band switch and turn the dial freely, B4 it would only turn a small amount.Now i have full range
on the tuning cap,so i guess this is a good thing.I'm still a little leery about taking the mech apart,don't wanna
open a can of worms.
