There are 2 optical chopper wheels inside, one stationary and the other on the shaft. The FT757GX used the same one. I had one that came out of a 757GXII that the shaft seized but some oil freed it up. Of course I took it apart to see what was inside :-) It sure looks like shaft wear over the aproximate 32 years took its toll. The LEDS was a good move Peter. I had a 757GX that I was inside of for many years :-) Very nice that you found a suitable replacement for the 767GX. I still have the FP-757HD power supply, a very nice one I might ad that has a slow on unlike the Astrons, maybe .25 seconds from 0 to full voltage. I use it to run my Ic706mk2g now.

I think rotary encoders may fail more often than we think...I had to replace the encoder on my TenTec RX-340 receiver not too many years after I got it; fortunately TT was still in business at that time and the new one was relatively inexpensive....almost wish I'd bought two as a "just in case"!

It's great to see these good old girls get a tune-up not a throw out. And looking back at all the work it must of took to assemble this radio as compared to today rigs is incredible. Anyway's Anywho's Anyhow look forward to your next. Cheers 73

I get myself in trouble - by taking apart the bad parts ;) I would wonder if the encoder problem was a worn bushing giving an erratic readings - worn wiper - if it used a wiper , or optical window ? Having done a lot of machining , would think about replacing bushing - but that would add to cost - getting myself in trouble again . Also wether the fit to mount was a matching ? Thanks again for the great videos , John

there was a mod concerning the freq not holding. the batteries were wearing out too quickly so they added a shottkey diode in the cct. of course, the back up switch may have been switched off (next to the switch you squirted) in the first place. I have replaced my battery several times so now have extended it into one of my vacant module bays to make the replacement easier as taking this radio apart is a real nause!

Great job. I had to do those mods to a 767gx several months ago but I altered some resistors on the encoder and that fixed it. How did you overcome the shorter shaft on the New encoder. If I thought a aftermarket encoders shaft was going to fit I would have opted for changing the encoder instead.

Sorry I know I asked this before but you didn't reply. I'd really like to know about the encoder shaft? Was the new one long enough or did you have to modify it? I've seen people swap the encoder before but they needed to extend the shaft making the job a bit of a pain in the butt. So was the one you bought as long as the original or did you do something to make the VFO knob stay on? I'm really interested to know... Thanks, Great Video as always.

Hi Peter, the encoder you used (and I bought) is not only too short for the knob, the size of the shaft ís also too big and does not fit in the main knob! This was not mentioned in your video. For this reason the repair is much more complicated than you made us believe. Not amused, greetings, Chris
