Needed, alignment instructions for same. AM/FM #12-903. At one outlet
they told me it was permanently aligned. #%! I asked them if it was
aligned to either the left or right and got that old familiar "Dumb" look!
TIA




So how is it out of alignment? Does it seem to have to have two IF peaks on
AM or FM? Do the actual frequencies track with the dial calibrations? Is
the FM distorted?

I've never had the back off one of these particular sets, but most of the
Asian analog radios have more or less standardized color codes on the IF
transformer adjustments and such, and are usually pretty easy to figure out.

If the radio used to work well and has just recently started showing
problems, the original adjustments may still be good but something else
might have failed. Twisting screws on a radio with a bad bypass capacitor
or solder joint will end up wasting alot of time and effort.

Please excuse my ignorance, I don't know what " aligned to either the left
or right " any more than the Radio Shack guy did.
