BULLETIN # 808
MODEL: TR-2400
SUBJECT: OFFSET FAILURE
                                                          
 For intermittent or no offset, suspect an intermittent short between
 the metal body of the REV NOR SW and an adjacent jumper on the PCB, or
 intermittent contact between the volume control metal body and the PLL PCB.
 
 1. Disassemble the radio and inspect the board to the right of the REV/NOR
 SW. Using a small flat blade screwdriver or similar tool, gently pry the
 short metal jumper and the metal body switch tab apart. This should clear
 the offset trouble. 
                                        
 2. Run a strip of cloth tape (not vinyl tape) approximately 1/4 inch wide,
 across the top edge of the Display unit directly under the volume control.
 This will prevent the control housing from intermittently touching the PCB
 and causing loss of offset functions. In similar manner, add insulation at
 the bottom left corner and upper right corner of the PCB.

 3. When reassembling, make certain the PLL unit does not inadvertently
 ground the Power switch tab.
