Recovered the little threaded core and it isn't damaged, but its like it doesn't seem to fit the threads in coil, it just slips on by and falls to the bottom.

take a little section of a thin rubber band and put it vertically on the ferrite slug.
then insert it into the core. should be able to get it to thread in then.

Sometimes I'll rest a small piece of paper or snip of rubber band in the hole before threading the slug back in. It will press it to one side keeping the threaded surfaces in contact. Once you get the carrier back on AM after following the alignment instructions, you can use VR10 to adjust the carrier to 4watts. It will possibly go past 10, but anything over 3 to 5 watts might not fully modulate making you sound quiet or muffled.
That picture you showed looks like all the coils have been turned. They all have a mark but none of the slots in the slugs line up with the marks. Don't turn anything until someone tells you.
Thanks.. I was able to get it back together.
I have vr10 wide open and i can't get anywhere near 4 watt carrier. Now that i have that coil fixed (maybe?) I'll try to go through the alignment instructions again.
