At long last, it is aligned! I’ve uploaded a couple of new videos to YouTube to demonstrate. YouTube picked up on Hall and Oates playing on KTSO when I recorded FM, so it has alerted me that this video may not be available to everyone around the world. Apologies if the video doesn’t play in your area. I figured a fifteen-second demonstration would be okay, but I guess there’s limitations to recording music.
Here’s a link to the AM demonstration:

And here’s a link to the FM demonstration:

To me, the reproduction quality is amazing for both AM and FM. Honestly, the quality of AM reception is smoother than that of my car’s radio!
