   Anyone successfully done this? If so, what's the secret? I've been   
   f***-arsing around for 4 hours today trying to do one on a 1972   
   Grundig portable FM/AM radio and got nowhere. The design is most of   
   the problem. For some reason, the drive pully is completely smooth and   
   affords no grip to the cord whatsoever, so the thing just slips around   
   such that the pointer only moves when it can get a bit of traction.   
   What a f***ing joke.
