Tram D201A had to adjust VFO dial for manual tuning?

Hi all, probably a simple adjustment but don't want to adjust the wrong one, on the Tram D201A in MANUAL tuning I see the VFO dial is off by approx 1 channel, in other words listening to channel 25, it shows channel 24 on the VFO dial. Any help? Thanks, Adam

Hi Greg, the service manual is not good in that it tells you what to adjust but not where it is. Anyway, inside the radio in line with the manual tuning knob you will see a trimmer capacitor on top, it's easy to see and I just adjusted it while I used the manual cal button to zero beat the frequency to match the VFO markings. Thanks, Adam
