Actually, this thing is incredibily well made, the ICs are mounted on sockets, the tape mechanism is made of 100% thick sheetmetal, and the sound from the built in 5 inch speaker is incredible, the TV picture is also really bright and crisp.

I also have another combo just like this one, but with a color TV, a JVC CX-500ME, this one had quite a few bugs too but i had been able to fix it, the color CRT is inline but has a traditional dot phosphor pattern just like early portacolor CRTs

Anyway, i have already tried to realign the tuner, but i can't get it to work any better than this, maybe it's worth to replace the capacitors around the IFs and front end?
