Lee -
I assume you mean 3/64". It's also possible that someone has been 'fixing' the pointer adjustment
too!! I would NOT change anything and just go with where they are.
I've seen them with 'red' on the top of the core and on the bottom of the core. I don't know what
criteria were involved to make them a red dot or ... Possibly core lots? If it tunes up ok I
wouldn't worry about it. Only thing I can think of would be an inability to reach the high end of
10M, or the low end of 160M. I have had to fudge a bit on 10m to avoid having the trimmer adjuster
screw fall out! Suggest you put a drop of nail polish on the 10M screws, or they might change when
you turn the radio on its' side!

OK, discovered something else...looks like Drake aligned the tuning rack based on a RED DOT coils
form set.
The brown glyptol is intact.
But, My coils do not have any dots on them...did they go away? Or did Drake change the way they
did this?
I really don't want to touch them as they are all the same.and with pre-selector far CCW on
0...they are at 39/64 (RED DOT setting??)
Thanks,
