Hello gang. My old 1011D is being recapped and I have questions about the VFO. It appears like its been narrowbanded??? Is that a thing? Ive tried to open up the bandwidth to get my 40 channels but its f#$%ed. I receive channel 1 on 18 and 40 on 36. That is making it very difficult to tune in to a specific channel. The 8950 RF out checks good at 70% on my old heathkit tube tester. Dont know how efficient the tester is but thats the score. I pulled the tube until I get the recap completed. So, im concentrating now on why the VFO goes down as low as 25.500ish mhz and as high as 28.100ish mhz. The circuitry was never modified. Inside the VFO looks original. The parallel pf disk caps on both the CB and 28mhz along with the 28mhz tuning cap appear to have been sealed in place. The CB tuning cap does not have a seal, nor does it look like any remnants of a seal was even there. Id like to get it to align on the dial as shown. 1 on 1, 40 on 40. Does anyone have knowledge about this issue? Or, was it a factory mod or modded by someone? The TX on CB mod was never done so I'm really wondering whats going on with it.
