That's well within tolerances, as far as my experience goes. You might be able to get it a hair closer, but I wouldn't fret it as long as your sensitivity is good. I generally try to get it within one "tick" + or - on the dial with any radio, and sometimes that takes a LOT of fiddling and repeating the alignment procedure. The RCA C9-4 I just completed I went over, and over, and over about 6 times before I had it both accurate and sensitive enough to meet my expectations. If it is sensitive, and works as well as you like, I would not worry any more. Sometimes it is best to leave well enough alone.
