Pat will let you know what to do
with it...LOL
Seriously, find a good Tech who has the
proper equipment to align it back up.

Sounds to me like the frequency counter is off.
There should be an adjustment there somewhere, I don't know where though.
Maybe someone will.... Hopefully

seriously, freebird , you CANNOT assume the radio you are LISTENING to is on the frquency they are supposed to be on. when talking locally, my grant XL needs to be retuned sometimes 300-400 Hz to follow a roundtable-27.3849 to 27.3853. how they follow each other, i don't know. & 3 or more will ALL claim to be on 27.3850 at the same time. it really should be checked on generator/freq counter & aligned if needed.

Darn Pat, Why is it I always pass up the most likely cause, and go to the hard stuff first!?
That's like the time I tore my amp apart to see why it wouldn't turn on, spent like 3 days on it and then it dawned on me..."check the fuse"
Any way Freebird, check pat's idea first, then mine.
