     Actually you need to turn the tuning dial
Fully CCW with the dial pointer removed to feel
the "Bump" when the cap inside the VFO stops.
may not be noticeable depending on wear/adjustment
of the reduction drive.

    Then reinstall the dial pointer Parrallel with
the bottom edge of the front panel. That will get
the "Mechanical" synchronization complete.

    Then follow the manual or N1BCG posts..
let the rig warm up a while first.

Dan brings up a *very* good point, particularly since the dial is off by that amount. Def check the mechanical alignment first!
