I can get the VFO dial to be right on at both ends but up to 5khz (one
division) off at mid dial
or right from 0 to 400 and 5k off at the 500 end.
I found a reccomendation about the using the lower coil peak point and it
makes no difference.
How much dial accuracy can I expect fron this thing?
Any idea what to try to make it better?

Another question
I'm not sure whether to adjust the points for zero beat or peak meter
deflection.


You want to use the zero beat. Max meter deflection will be up/down
from zero beat depending on mode.

The Zero Set control on the front panel is to 'tweak' the calibration
across the band where it may not line up perfectly. Utilizing it at
100kc points you should be able to get the calibration "as good as you
can interpolate" on the dial.
