53-1750 Alignment question
#2

You should be able to receive the 455kc signal by using your loop but if that isn't working for you you can connect the output of the generator thru the cap to the connection on the loop ant that is connected to the tuning capacitor. Be sure to use an isolation transformer connected to the power cord and outlet.
Your not really connecting the sg to the output tube but to the mixer tube (7A8) and by adjusting the tuning capacitor shouldn't change the 455kc signal (doesn't matter where the dial is set) .

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got it!
