It will do the job, yes.
However, with these what I used (before settling on an HP) was a counter. I bought a decent BK Precision counter for $25 and every time I set a frequency I first would feed it to counter to set it exactly to what I needed. Then use it to align the radio.
Cumbersom but not too bad.
Otherwise your ST dial could be off quite a bit and your radio will be misaligned.
Recently there was a thread about folks using a cheap front panel counters built in their cheap tube SGs.
Terry might be the initiator of one of them. I think it was in the year of 2019.
This would make it almost as good as an HP.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
