Thanks Terry   I can't get WMGW here in NE Ohio but I have a local station at 1360 that I listen to every day.  As I was doing the alignment I thought the osc. screw on the trimmer turned awful easy.  I didn't want to turn it too much so I kept trying other things like asking for advise.  I decided to take the trimmer apart to sees what was going on with that screw and it was backed completely out on the back side.  This trimmer has a screw with a flat head on the bottom and the other has the slot in the end of the same screw.  Then the nut is the tensioner on the top side.  So when ever I was turning that screw nothing was being adjusted on the bottom side, I THINK.  So now I'm putting everything back together and we will try again.
  Now when you say use a freq. counter and loop, what do you use for the loop?  The input cable of the counter or a loop of wire attached to the counter.  I have a Beckman Industrial counter but it is not programable.  I used it to check my signal gen. when this radio kept being off by 200kc and the S.G. was within 5kc so not too bad.
  Thanks Terry  I knew you'd be chiming in some time cause all us wannabes need your knowledge and it is always forthcoming.  That's why these forums are good fodder for our addiction!!
