David, Yes I did. Thanks for the info. I found out why it was not aligning right.. The Dial string broke on the fine tuning band spread and the tuning cap was not where it should have been.. It was all the way over to 100 on dial.. So as soon as I moved it back to 0 and made sure the tuning cap was correct it aligned OK..

Now I need to get some dial cord and fix it.

Operator Error.. Lessen Learned..

The top end of band 4 is very bad. I read that a different 12BE6 can help with top end..

Thanks
