I just refinished recapping two Philco 46-420 radios. One of the radios was missing the antenna so I made a new one matching the number of loops in the other. They both play quite well pulling in stations across the dial. Would you recommending aligning the radios or leave well enough alone. I have not aligned a radio before but the instructions seem to be pretty straight forward and I do have a signal generator.

Thanks - Jim
