Thanks to all for the suggestions ...
I opened up the MN-2700, put a drop of 3 in one oil on each end of the two varicaps and they now move freely.
I guess the knobs will hold if I epoxy them...

I've got an MN-2700 that I've been using daily for a while. I've got two questions about it:
- I need two of the plastic knobs that go on the levers on the bottom used to switch in additional capacitance. the two on my MN-2700 are cracked. Anyone know where to get a couple?
- both the reactance and restive variable capacitors are stiff - they require more than a fingertip to move them. Normal or do they need lubrication?
