Ron,

Start by loosening and then retightening every mechanical fastening screw you can find.  Also look for evidence of corrosion at these points and clean as necessary.  Then put it through an alignment per the manual.

My 2 cents

  Subject: [Heath] SB104 question


  Our club was donated a SB-104, SB-644A Remote VFO, and speaker/power supply combo.
  After much cleaning inside the radio works.

  The newest problem is the frequency display.  The gas discharge tubes seem to be ok.
  When in the 20 meter switch position the display reads 15255 instead of 14255.  The rig is
  receiving on 14255 so there is a display problem.  15 meters is reading correctly but 10 meters
  is reading 1 MHz high 29400 instead of 28450. 80 and 40 meters seem to read correctly.

  I am sure this question has been asked years ago but we just received this radio and it has
  a lot of history behind it.  Would like to get it operating correctly.

  If you can indicate where to start to look it would be much appreciated.
