False Beats / Loose pins

[Cy Shuster]

There may be more than one kind of "looseness".  For example, if you can 
pull the pin out with your fingers, but the hole is exactly the dimension of 
the pin plus some tiny amount along its entire length, then perhaps the end 
of the pin doesn't wobble.  If you remove the pin and slightly enlarge the 
top part of the hole (think of a slight countersink), then perhaps the top 
of the pin would wobble, and cause a variable-length termination.
