That looks like a very useful doc. Are there more - other brands?

Not sure Russ, I haven't looked very hard.
I might do a little looking around to see if there is more out there.

The publication includes radios up to 1937. Your 1946 radio wouuld not be in there.

Alignment info for your radio should be in the service bulletin found on the audiophool site.

You need the djvu plug in or reader to view the document.
Cheers,
Bob
