You are lucky to find a tuner so fast. Fortunately, Admiral was a big seller back in the day.

That picture looks very promising!

Guess I was SUPER lucky that the adjust screw for channel 7 was sitting in a good spot for me to even get a picture to begin with. There was definitely almost no sound. When I popped out the channel 7 strip, the adjust screw fell out into the turret. Along with 3-4 other adjust screws and a ton of that paper like substance that makes up the adjust "tubes." What are those tubes made of?
