IF alignment
#3

IMHO, by the time you can get close by ear you will have aligned enough of them with a signal generator you would go back and verify it with test equipment anyway. It's a game I like to play now and then.

Take care with too much pressure on your alignment tools if you are tuning stuck slugs with internal Allen holes. They can crack. Cracked ones are a bear to get out. Then you get to measure the pieces and try finding a replacement.

Hamfests are a good source of used alignment tools - no such thing as too many - also signal generators.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
