Symptoms:
- The dial pointer does not correspond to the correct frequency.
- The digital readout has no correlation to the dial pointer.
- I can bring-in stations no problem, good audio, stereo light is on, quartz lock led is on in presence of strong clean signal.
- I can vary the frequency but it will only go as low as 90.5 Mhz (when the dial pointer is at the lowest far left).
- I tried swapping the MSM5540 (from a Sansui spare) & did not make any difference.
- I tried swapping the Quartz & did not make any difference.
- I know that these G-series have known issues such as described.
It may as simple as the Local Oscillator having drifted a bit. How far off is the dial indicator? Tweeking TC06 may fix it.
