    TEF6686 Knob and/or button issues

    Since upgrading to V2 firmware on my TEF6686, I've now noticed the tuning knob seems less responsive. For example, normally, when tuning up or down, one can feel the "clicks" in the knob rotation and see the frequency change on the display. Now, when tuning, it will sometimes take a couple "clicks" of the knob to get the frequency to change. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Other than this oddity, the radio works great. I just hope if this is a problem that it doesn't worsen.

    My tuning knob is also a little funky. Sometimes it will take an extra click to make it move up or down 100khz. I suppose I could have sent it back the day I got it but for me it's no big thing and I'm using it as a webserver so I tune it from the UI on the monitor instead.

      Mine is a bit random since new, just tried it now and it missed on the 47th click, then again on the 6th click, seems no different with firmware upgrade, but may not have noticed too much as usually use auto tune.
