Hi gang, resurrecting my old thread on my 37-116 deluxe. I still haven’t got around to refinishing the cabinet, hoping for this year. So I plugged in the chassis to play it, haven’t done that in awhile and noticed the that some stations aren’t lining up on the dial like they should. I’ve tried realigning it but have the same problem, tracking seems to be depending where on the dial. I thought about it and came to the conclusion that maybe my reproduction dial is off compared to the original..27-5207. So with using a compass like a pair of dividers, I measured the distance between several numbers on the dial and when comparing it to the old original dial, it is off. In some areas, the worst I saw was nearly 30KC. No wonder it doesn’t track well. Anyone else run into this?
