This is not so unusual. If you have matching Ser#s between coil pack and set it is quite sad.

I have been looking back in the post and now I am lost as to whether this G2MI logging is on a bandspread or a general coverage setting. As it was 3755 dial (I think!) suspect bandspread.

So many things affect HRO Cal. The one that I battle is the insulated rod on which all the moving vanes sit. The vanes are set by pairs of grub screws but they bite into the rod and leave indents. If you want to re-cal all four gangs of that capacitor what do you do? Rotate by 90 and start again with a capacitance meter?

I have had sets where someone had rocked the LO gang. All the RF stage ones at max C but LO not quite. I thought that was suspect - or it could be deliberate...?
