It's an "eye-talian" thing isn't it !

Johnny,

Thx for the picture -- it brings back a lot of memories and it's also a great picture of your folks (or grandparents?).

Regards,

Ed,
That's right -- the only one who would go into the "parlor" in my folk's house was my mother -- and only to dust everything! I passed through a few times (walking on a plastic rug runner, of course) but never allowed to sit on that uncomfortable, gaudy looking furniture that really belongs in a museum and not a living room!!

Regards,

I never use the radio in the Box, so I guess I don't know about sticky knobs .

My "seek" knob is also sticky on the boxster radio. I'm glad I found this thread.

As for causes, my guess is heat. Melting.

Also, my seek knob tracks up and down even when I only turn it clockwise.

For example, I could be on 99.1
I turn it clockwise to go up and it goes to 99.9
I turn it clockwise again to go higher, but it goes back down to 99.1
Samething happened when I changes stations in a counter clockwise motion, but it is not as bad.

It takes me a while to get to the radio station I want. Any ideas?
