b. Mechanical Adjustments.— Normally the tuning dial will not need any adjustment in the
field, however, if the above procedure fails to restore normal operation, refer to the following:
(1) Loosen both stops of the tuning mechanism..
(2) Rotate dial to the extreme low-frequency end until the dial is stopped by the inductuner
stop of BOTH the “Master” and the “Slave” Tuners (please verify that the two inductuners
stop at the same time, if not adjust their shaft for effective stop coincidence). Hairline should
align with triangle on dial.
(3) Back up just off both the inductuner stops (for the very same amount) and tighten the set
screws in the dial drive low-frequency stop.
(4) The dial mark just below 55 Mc. should line up under the indicator (this mark is the
logging-scale "zero"). If this mark does not coincide with the indicator line, loosen the dial set
screws, align and re-tighten the screws.
(5) Rotate dial to the extreme high-frequency end until the dial is stopped by both the
inductuner stops (please verify this happens at the same time). Hairline should align with
triangle on dial, if not, loosen the screws on both the inductuner shafts and align triangle.
(6) Back up just off both the inductuner stops (for the very same amount) and tighten the set
screws in the dial-drive high-frequency stop. This completes the dial adjustments.
4. RF AMPLIFIER ALIGNMENT
(“Master” and “Slave” Tuners
).
RF Amplifier Alignment. The RF circuits are wide band compared with the IF selectivity and
are designed around the highly stable Mallory S-4 spiral inductuner. The end inductors are
also very stable, and therefore the unit should not require realignment. If realignment is found
necessary:
(1) Unsolder C-248 from the inductuner lug and solder to the BNC test connector.
(2) Connect a sweep generator with a 50-Ohm source impedance to the BNC test jack.
(3) Connect oscilloscope to front-end test point TP-202.
(4) Set the dial to 70 Mc.
(5) Adjust C-217 and C-222 for a double-tuned symmetrical response centered at 70 Mc. Use
70 Mc. marker..
