Frayed wires in the plug looking a little iffy...
I went ahead and fully disassembled it, cleaned everything and fixed the frayed wires.

Alignment

April 02, 2020

Starting on the alignment. Looks like the 455khz crystal has drifted to 452.6khz. The alignment will correct for the drift. The drift is normal, due to the age of the crystal. 65 years and counting

Alignment part 2

Did a full IF and RF alignment on the NC-98. It took 2 or 3 hours. All the repairs worked including the new trimmer capacitor. Its working excellent!
