Thank you all for your help. I think i will try the weather station cause when i turn my attenuator on it does not lose the signal bars like it did before. So i will try that and let you all know. and again thank you all for helpHere's what I would do: (If it's still receiving well, I would leave it alone)
If you are determined to get it back to where it was, try this.
Look closely at the red screw. If it NOT inside a coil, this MIGHT work. No guarantees.
1. Set it on manual and tune to a weak, even noisy, weather station.
2. Note the exact position of the screwdriver slot. BE PRECISE.
3. VERY SLOWLY, turn the screw to the right (clockwise) until you lose the signal.
4. Note the exact position of the slot.
5. VERY SLOWLY, turn the screw counter-clockwise until you hear the signal again.
6. Continue turning the screw counter-clockwise until you lose the signal.
7. Note the exact position of the slot.
8. The correct setting should be mid-way between the points where you lost the signal.
I will try and let you all know.

:wink:Hope you get it fixed.
What was wrong with the scanner in the first place?
Did you hear some sort of rattling that made you curious?
