Hey yall. I recently purchased a mint Minitor 3 for FireMedic4. He sent his in and they replaced the pager. So basically I have a new Min 3 SV 2 chan . Yea I know, Im lucky. HAHAHA. Anyway the knobs are sticky. Almost like they are to tight. Is there any type of lube for them or will they loosen up with time? Thanks in advance

Thats odd. Most Minitor III knobs are so loose, you don't even know what setting you are on. Consider yourself lucky!

Yea exactly. I have another Min 3 and the abcd selecter is real loose. Gotta pay close attention to where the knob is at. But this one is so tight its hard to tell where its at.

Well, usually all new radios have really tight knobs when you first get them ( I just re-cased a couple 5k's and they're really tight ). Mebey they finally got their stuff together and started making the pager knobs tight? It would make sense to have them tight due to them being prone to use with FF gloves and the like....
