. 3.
4,
Connect a frequency Counter to test point J301.
Set the FM signal generator to provide 60 dB {1 mV) at
98 MHz.
Tune the receiver to the same frequency so that the cen-
ter tuning meter pointer indicates its center.
Turn off the modulation of the FM signal generator and
adjust the R304 (@) so that the frequency counter may
a precisely react 19.08 kHz.
"3.7 STEREO SEPARATIGN ALIGNMENT
1,
Set the FM signal generator to provide stereo composite
signal and tune the receiver to the same frequency so
that the center tuning meter pointer indicates its center.
. Adjust the R313 ()} for maximum and same separa-
tion in both channels.
3.8 MUTING LEVEL ALIGNMENT

3.
Set the FM signal generator to provide 22 dB {12,6 nV)
at 98 MHz, ,
Set the modulation of FM signal generator to 1 kHz,
100%, ,
Tune the receiver to the same frequency so that the cen-
ter tuning meter pointer indicates its center.
. Turn on FM MUTING pushswitch.
. Turn the R207 (C1) until the output waveform disap-
pears and adjust it to a point where the waveform comes
to appear again:

(Selector switch in the AM position)
4.1 AM IF ALIGNMENT
1
Connect a sweep generator to the tuning capacitor C120
{for AM oscillator) and an alignment scope to the test
point JAGG.
. Rotate each core of IF transformers LAGS (()) and
LAO6 (D) for maximum height and flat top symmetrical -
response.
4.2 AM TRACKING ALIGNMENT
1.
Set the AM signal generator to 520 kHz. Tum ‘the tuning
capacitor fully closed (place the tuning pointer at the
low end) and adjust the oscillator coil LAO4 (OD) for
_ maximum audio output.
. Set the AM signa! generator to 1650 kHz, Piace the tun-
ing pointer in the high frequency end and adjust the
trimming capacitor TC, ((L)) for maximum audio output.
. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until no further adjustment is nec-
essary.
. Set the AM signal generator to 600 kHz and tune the re-
ceiver to the same frequency and adjust a slug core of
AM ferrite-rod antenna LO51 (K)} for maximum output,
. Set the generator to 1400 kHz and tune the receiver to
the same frequency and adjust the antenna trimming
capacitor TC, (KK) for maximum output,
. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until no further adjustment is nec-
essary.
NOTE: Use the loop for AM tracking alignment.
