Aligning the 40-190
#1

Hi Philconians,

I am wanting to align my beautiful Philco 40-190. It plays and I have a good signal generator (probably 1970s model). My problem is determining where to hook up the signal output. I have the schematic and Riders alignment instructions but they are unclear. Adjusting the I.F.s went fine and the instructions say hook to No. 1 on Loop Panel. (I used a .1 capacitor.) That worked great.

From there on it simply says for Output Connections: Use Loop on Generator. I read the part about making a wire loop in the generator output lead, but it doesn't say where to attach it for the next five adjustments, including SW. Anybody have a handle on correct placement of the lead?

Your advice will be appreciated. Thanks.
