Sorry, should be "end-clearance".

The encoder has probably developed too much end play due to wear. Pull
out on the knob while turning and see if it still skips. If that seems to
cure it, you can hold the skirt and turn the knob to increase the drag.
This will cause the little wipers to push against the panel, taking up the
slack in en-clearance.

Personally, I'd do a micro processor reset.
You'd be surprised as to how many things that corrects.

I have an OMNI VI+ that is exhibiting VFO problems. Occasionally the
main tuning will not change frequency, or will do so at a very slow
rate, or in the wrong direction. It is almost as if the main tuning
knob is slipping on the shaft. However, it isn't slipping. This
sometimes cures itself or sometimes when I change bands a few times.
I have not seen this reported previously as an issue.
Anybody have experience with this problem?
Thanks & 73
