NOTE
: THIS RECEIVER IS TRANSISTORIZED AND SPECIAL CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN SERVICING. READ
THE FOLLOWING (NOTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING ALIGNMENT)
Alignment requires an exacting procedure and should be undertaken only when necessary.
Isolation transformer must be used to prevent shock hazard.
The test equipment specified or its equivalent is required to perform the alignment properly. Use of equipment which
does not meet these requirements may result in improper alignment.
Accurate equipment is essential to obtain proper alignment of this receiver.
Use of excessive signal from a sweep generator can cause overloading of receiver circuit Overloading should be
avoided to obtain a true response curve. Insertion of markers from the marker generator should not cause distortion of
the response curve.
The AC Power line voltage should be kept 120 volts while alignment is being performed.
Do not attempt to disconnect any components while the receiver is in operation.
Make sure the power cord is disconnected before replacing any parts in the receiver.

BLOCK DIAGRAM
1) Disconnect the TUNER IF
output from TP1 and connect equipment as shown above.
2) Set the sweep/marker generator for 30 Vrms.
3) Observe 1 Vp-p on scope by adjusting power supply B (4~5V).
4) Adjust PIF coil L505 for according beat signal with 45.75 MHz marker on scope (See Fig. 6).
5) Connect the DET IN
to TP6.
6) Adjust AFT coil L504 for center display at 45.75 MHz on scope (See Fig. 7).
7) After completing the above steps, disconnect equipment and adjust the AGC delay circuit as explained in the General
Adjustments section of this manual.
