Model 80 Compact alignment
#15

By ham fisted I was more meaning that what they touched was obvious rather than incorrect. There is a big difference between the original soldered connections and later repairs. The connections on the transformers look original. I found a lot of out of spec resistors and caps but no miswires. It apparently can be aligned using a 460 khz signal generator so that is correct in that the procedures work. The problem is my annoying habit of digging a little deeper.

The case was quite likely refinished at some time. However, it doesn't look bad and I don't think we will refinish it at this point. If it had been sprayed pink or had that fake wood grain brush on stuff we obviously would redo it.
