Philco 48-482 Alignment
#1

Good Morning,
I've gone through the AM alignment with a breeze....and she works great...

"BUT"

That darn FM alignment has me and my 75 year old,  experienced friend baffled.  If you can help me with the first step I'd appreciate it....   The FM works but it's a bit garbled.....

Here's a pic of the first FM alignment instructions.....
   

  it says to make this device with a cap and resister...and place it where?  and this "Padder" from what I gather is just a trimmer cap in one of the if cans that's used for adjusting the Lower frequencies??
   

Thanks Much,
Mike
