Default Re: Trying to revive a Goodmans One Ten receiver

Carefully lube anything that rotates in the tuning 'chain' using thin silicon lube accurately applied from the end of a pointed tool like an awl. I do this all the while when restoring my vintage receivers. Silicon oil is very sympathetic to most materials and can be applied safely and with confidence. It's a friction build up problem at many points and they can all be eased.
