SDS200 PUSH/FUNC button question.

[Swynn106]

Is it normal for the function knob to feel loose? It doesn't feel like it's going to fall off but it has a wiggle to it when you hold it. The squelch and volume don't do this and it's concerning to me considering that I just received this scanner today.

Mine has a slight amount of wiggle. Hardly noticeable. Advise to ignore it as normal... as long as it does not get worse. Worry about it when it does but until then, it “If works, don’t fix it!”.

I pulled the knob off and you can see the post move around when you hold it. It doesn't seem to do it nearly as much when the post is pushed in though. It is probably not a big deal and I wouldn't worry about it as much if I knew that all of them were like that but since no one around my area sells scanners anymore I can't look at them to compare.
