Hi,
I am having problems with high level of noise as poor reception on my Nikko Gamma I. I have read the sticky regarding cleaning analog tuners and it seems pretty straight-forward. However, the local repair shop in town had a look at the tuner and claim that it cannot be cleaned as the tuner would get misaligned if the cover for the tuning capacitor is removed!
I have never heard anything like that before. There are screws to remove the cover and I can see adjustment screws under the cover (which I have no intention to touch) so I cannot see that it would get out of alignment only because the cover is removed.
Would anyone have any idea if there is any truth to the repair shop's claim for this particular tuner?
I have attached some photos and can upload more if needed.
Thanks
Tom
