Hello all,
Merry Christmas from warm (54 deg F), rainy Winthrop. Snow is about washed away. Regarding my music system - since I am 81 and wear hearing aids, the best in the world is no longer needed. I certainly couldn't tell speakers apart as I could 30 years ago. I do have good hearing aids, though. Starkey wireless (but not the newer Bluetooth ones) XINO 110. The frequency response has about 6 channels. Can be set for 4 different response curves. The curve I use at symphony is essentially flat from 20 to about 15k Hz. I can hear timpani and piccolos.
I want to get the Carver TX-11 working so I can get better FM response than the Rotel receiver.
The problem is that the manual that came with my TX-11 does not remotely resemble the TX-11 owner manual I downloaded from this site. Also the service manual does not reflect my unit. The service manual shows that the tuner has 2 crystals, X501 and X502, and 2 trim capacitors, TC502 and TC507. My tuner has only 1 crystal and a single trim capacitor of a completely different shape than the ones shown in the various repair pages here and on YouTube.
Am I at a level that I can upload photos of the PC boards, and a scanned copy of my owner manual?

I have got my TX-11working again. What I did was adjust the trim cap by the crystal TC-501 in above photos, in one direction a bit, and then in the other direction a bit and then returned to original position. Tuner has worked for several days now without the typical display problem.
How does one adjust this trimer for the correct position?
