Still Not Tracking Right
#13

I received the other generator and it does have a frequency counter. I decided to go back through the entire process of alignment per the instructions in the Sam's and it's still off. A local station called Joy 62(620 kHz) still shows as about 675 on the dial. I tried another known spot at 850 and the dial pointer indicates 875. Trying to reset the pointer on this model is tricky as it's sort of a two piece deal. You can't just slide the pointer but it seems most all stations are up the scale from where they should be. Further up the dial at the high end, station 1620 comes in at 1550.
