Re: AVO Multimeter survey
No, i think 'R' is a variant- it probably means one or more of the internals specs are different. (knowing ACWEECO it will be a subtle change)
Pot Q can only be turned after being lifted off it's 'bed' however Pot R should turn freely through about 280 degrees (or it will keep rotating beyond this if the screw on the rear is slightly loose)
I did have a P pot winding that had lifted slightly out of it's groove, you are correct i think they were just shoved in and relied upon being slightly springy to retain them. When i had this issue i put a couple of little blobs of araldite where the winding meets the bakelite, which held it in well. (Not superglue, as it's a brilliant insulator and through low surface tension it creeps across surfaces and into crevices way too much)
