The dial scale being "off" can be down to two things:-

1. Pointer incorrectly positioned on the spindle, drive cord or W.H.Y.

2. Incorrect alignment, generally RF alignment.

If you've got the test gear why not just check the alignment at the calibration points at the HF and LF ends of each waveband?
