Can't tune in VHF high channels

I swapped the VHF tuner in my daily watcher a while back and am finally getting around to setting up channels other than 3 and 4. I'm using a Blonder-Tongue AMCM-860 mini modulator in a rack chassis for this procedure. I tuned in channels 2-6 no problem at all, but 7-10 would not cooperate, so I quit after that. The best I can get on those channels is a fuzzy B&W picture. I tried another of the same model modulator, made sure they were set for broadcast frequencies and even tried other modes with no difference.

It kind of sucks that I'm unable to finish right now because I have to drop the controls to access the tuner oscillator slugs.
