KX125

[Roger]

I was in the process of entering the AWOS freq and when I pulled the center
knob to select the .72 on my King KX125 the whole center knob and shaft
came out. Has anyone had this problem? What does it involve to fix it?

Carefully push the knob back onto the shaft.

More than likely it is just too old to be fixed or possibly even used.

Checked out the site and this is what they had to say about the KX125:
Bendix/King KX-125
The Bendix/King KX-125 is their lowest priced Nav/Com. It features a 760
channel Comm unit, 200 channel Nav side, LCD display, digital radial/bearing
display, and a built-in digital course indicator.

b.. Bendix/King KX-125 Recon.

The KX-125 has the quality and reliability you expect from AlliedSignal.
This is a nice Nav/Com at a bargain price... Jim

I've used a KX-125 and I can assure you this is not an "old radio". Its
a digital flip-flop nav-com with a built in LCD bar-style CDI and
display. If I am not mistaken, they are still in production.

Repair? bag the part.. and go see your radio guy.
