I presume that the encoder shaft is more than a half inch long, like
3/4" but I don't have that radio and haven't had the knob off my radios
that do have encoders but Yaesu encoders don't necessarily match TenTec
and I don't notice instability of knob rotations. All the bearings I
suggested are 1/4" long.
