My Philco 37-116 Restore
#48

Hope you guys are still with me.

I have moved on to the alignment. I completed the IF alignment which was pretty much spot on. I'm stuck on the fidelity selectivity alignment. Instructions say to set that control fully counter clockwise and then sweep the generator between 460 and 480 to find a peak on each side. There is no peak in that range on either side of 470 just a steady decline of the tone. Yet when I listen to music there is a definite difference in the treble. What am I doing wrong and is the peak going to be greater than what is at 470?

As for the magnetic tuning adjustment I don't think I'm going to mess with that because it is working rather well pulling in the stations when pretty far off frequency on both sides.
