ABSTRACT:
A limited tuning range tuning unit useable with a television tuner of the turret type includes a user tunable coil having a tuning slug extending from an end of the tuning unit. A pinion gear engageable by a drive train coupled to a user operated fine tuning shaft is attached to the end of the tuning slug. The pinion gear is provided with a stop tooth for limiting the adjustment range of the slug to approximately one revolution. In one embodiment, the slug is also longitudinally movable with respect to a coil in the coil unit to provide a factory adjustment for centering the tuning range available to the user. Alternatively, the factory adjustment may be provided by making the slug rotatable with respect to the pinion gear.
