Dial inaccuracy is usually caused by poor tracking of the oscillator. Is the
problem evident on both AM and FM? If so, both oscillators will have to be
adjusted.
To set the oscillators, locate a moderate strength station towards the low end
of the dial and then set the tuning dial to the setting that corresponds to the
frequency of the station. Then slowly tune the oscillator coil until the
station comes in strongly.
Do the same with a station near the high end of the dial, and adjust the
oscillator trimmer capacitor.
Repeat until the dial tracks accurately.
You might have to tweak the RF stages, but the IF should be OK without
adjustment. Adjust the coils on the low end, the trimmer caps on the high end.

If you're not handy with electronic equipment, it might be best if you let a
friend who is handy do it for you.

That does sound rather daunting. But thanks for the advice, and thanks to
the previous poster for pointing to the PDF of the manual.
