Does anyone have the full alignment procedure for the RCA AR-88 beast? All I have is the RF/Osc procedure and I know my IF is somewhat out of whack. I've got all of the test equipment and I'm ready to go.

It's really a great DX receiver once it's recapped and many resistors replaced.

Steve-
The BAMA manuals are the ones that give only the RF/Osc adjustments; I still need the IF procedure.

Check out this site: http://www.radioblvd.com/ar88.htm

It contains more than anyone could possibly want to know about these receivers.

Remember the AR-88's have a couple different "IF's" so be careful. I think mine is 730 something kHz.
