I did go through the procedure, and found my tuner is a bit out of whack. Had to compensate the RF GEN. to get the tones i needed.
Even though my tuner positions are still askew, i did manage to increase the radios sensitivity and performance. Even the shadowmeter is alot more active as i tune stations in.. Starting to wonder if the tuning gang was molested or do i have something drifted?
Meanwhile, im getting signals through all the SW ranges depending on time of day...
On a curious note, how warm should the PT get under normal operation?
