Magnetic tuning question.
#5

Yes it is a wonderful system.  i use it.
My misunderstanding is with the alignment instructions.  

 The alignment instructions say that when you turn off  the magnetic tuning there should be no
change in tone response.  Im having a hard time understanding this.  


If the purpose of the magnetic tuner is to get to and keep the exact center of the broadcast, then when it is turned off  would not treble decrease?  -- because you are now not perfectly centered?  ( ie back to manual  tuning and i am assuming i cant get it perfectly centered.)  So then i am not receiving the entire band evenly manually thus less treble.

And in reverse when you turn MT on should not treble go up as the radio is now centered on the band? (assuming you were not perfect in your manual tuning).

It may just be semantics here or a misplaced word in the alignment instructions but  do you see what i am saying here?

Thanks

Bill
