Hi Again Steve:
There is quite a large amount of clearance in the slotted follower over
the rod. It generally stays up against one side due to the spring
tension applied with the external spring. Spring is there isn't it?
Looks kind of cheesy but works fine.

I'm wondering, though, as I tightened up the end-screw of the main
tuning shaft, if the guide-fork that rides along the upper shaft is
supposed to be really loose or not. The frequency jumping definitely
occurs if I touch any of these parts - this may be just coincidental.
The one thing that makes it so I'm not convinced that it's simple
expansion during heating is that the frequency jumps up /and down./
The PTO on my T-4X is nowhere near as sensitive to touching.
Looks like I just missed a PTO that went up on eBay at the end of
June. Drat. I'm dreading taking this thing completely apart for fear
that I'll completely break it.
