37-116 Restoration
#49

I'm curious. How accurate are these radios' dials after alignment?

For example, I aligned the 7.35-11.6 MHz band at 11.0 and 7.5 as per the instructions. I then looked to see where 10 MHz landed on the dial. It shows up at ~10.015 MHz. Not bad, not perfect. I figured I'd check 10 MHz since the 31m SW stations are around there along with WWV.

Can't think of anything witty.
