So I was able to align the unit, that helped it out a lot, and I was able to figure out how to get it into the manual tune mode. I need to know how to deal with cleaning the pot for the volume control, and tone control, neither work well at all. The tone control doesn't work at all, and it is a slider type, and the volume pot either won't control the volume or let sound come through at all.
