It's a known issue on many of these Chinese 10/11 meter radio's. Cheap encoders seems to be the issue. My CRR8900 has done it for years. I just turn the knob slowly and it seems to work fine.

Mine has started to slowly get worse,Gary is right it’s a cheap encoder causing the problem.Knights Radio sell a replacement for £10 but I’m not sure where or who can do the work for you. I tend to leave well alone as you should see my soldering..lol In the meantime I just use the stock mic for channel selection. Tom. 26 CT 4029
