Landen,

There is none on the Paragon. The Tuning knob attaches directly to the shaft
of the Hewlett Packard encoder. All the resistance is in the inertia of the
knob and the bearings in the encoder. I took and put a 'drop' of light
machine oil on the shaft bearing and it made it even more silky smooth.
