I aligned it as best I could.  I hooked everything up as they say and hooked the out put meter to the output trans. and the meter was at halfway across the dial.  But my SG seems to be at full attenuation all the time.  I can't turn it down cause its all the way down now.  Without that the meter stays in 1 spot no matter how much you move the condensers.  Could this thing be stuck in AVC or is my SG screwed up.  At the low end of the dial I get blasted out by one station and can't hardly hear any other stations.  Might just stick this one on the shelf and try something else.  Thanks
