^^^^ Surprise, surprise! That's how I do all mine! (even the "old" fm on the '42 model, works like a charm!!!). It sure would be swell to have all that fancy, schmancy equipment about and handy, but you have to do what you have to do! "Someday", perhaps, I'll have a scope or generator or both! So far, all of my units have been deemed "acceptable" to all that hear them. I can only imagine how well they would perform with a "real" alignment. So far, though, no complaints!
