I revisited this 6T2 today because I had never cleaned and re-lubricated its dual speed tuning control assembly.

I disassembled as much of it as I could get to come loose and then soaked it for 4-1/2 hours in naptha (I put the cup outside because of the fumes). Afterward, I brought the assembly back to the basement and finished cleaning it up. This was followed by relubrication with white silicone grease, reassembly, and reinstallation on the chassis.

The tuning is much smoother now. This almost eliminated the backlash. Not completely, but it is much better now.

Afterwards, I realigned the radio. It turns out my original alignment was nearly spot on as I really didn't change much other than the 1st IF adjustments...and those, only a little bit.

It is now finished.
