[Boatanchors] TCS Receiver Frequency dial (Plate)

[Bill Mellema]

You may remember I changed out the frequency scale on our TCS5 that had an overlay glued to a disk. We have a TCS12 parts rig I was able to pull a nice clean frequency scale plate and install it in the TCS5. One of the guys noticed that the scales were different for band 0, the logging scale. I checked the frequency of all three bands and they are off about a Mhz or so. I suspect the person that installed the scale made from an overlay, adjusted the oscillators to get somewhat close to the frequencies on the dial. That's my theory, since I believe all of the model TCS's use the same dial plate.
I hope everyone can follow this. The overlay scale that was installed was printed on paper and glued. It was faded so bad it was unusable.
Have I missed something here?
