I've found that the bars only overlap on the very strongest of stations so for weaker stations getting the gap between the bars the smallest is best. One thing that needs to be done is all the tubes need to be checked as just one weak IF tube can hurt. Also because some parts values have certainly drifted over time the unit should be aligned by someone that knows what they are doing. If the discriminator is off there will be distortion and a weak tube or poorly aligned IF can cause all the stations to appear weaker than they should and also make it noisier. The MPX alignment has a lot to do with the way it sounds also. I'd check all the tubes first and go from there....
When I got mine it worked fine in mono but in stereo it was distorted bigtime and that turned out to be a leaky capacitor..
