Re: MAIN DIAL SET SCREW?

 Many of these screws on the Japanese transceivers are the same size. Its been some time that I had the problem, but as I recall, it was a 3mm screw with a hex head. A good hardware store like ACE hardware should carry this item, at least the one near me does.

Hello all, my FT-100's main tuning dial was getting loose, so I peeled off the rubber cover to tighten the set screw and somehow managed to lose the tiny thing.  Can anybody give me the size of the set screw used to secure the main dial to its shaft?
