Fred, remove the knob and check the inner and outer portions of the dial shaft. Maybe it is catching on something inside.
The Scott dial was "borrowed" by Henry Kloss for his KLH and Advent and Tivoli radios. Here is an excerpt from a site on the KLH tuning dial.
"Setting the chassis on its back, I removed the vernier tuning knob and put a drop of oil at the junction where the inner (vernier) tuning shaft goes inside the main shaft. I worked the tuner a few more times, then left it to rest on its back overnight.
The next day, I cleaned a tiny amount of excess oil from the vernier shaft and tried it out. Perfect! Enough oil had worked its way into the mechanism to free it up."
Worth a try.
