Hi, Thanks for the replies . I thought that since it worked well on shortwave that the basic alignment should be ok. The radio was shipped about 600 miles ups so something could have happened in shipment Are the chassis bolts a #12 The ones that came with it are #10 and fit loosely and will not tighten? I'll try your suggestions. I had the guy that I bought it from ship the chassis and speaker separately to protect them well he took them to a ups store and they filled the speaker cone with Styrofoam peanuts and the wrapped it in bubble wrap ruining the cone.The chassis and cabinet were packed well. I had Hank Brazeal re cone it he did a great job. Archie
