Hi David,
You will need the signal generator to align the IF stages. Radio stations of known frequency can be used for the other adjustments such as the antenna trimmers. Not a recommended beginner's radio given all its bands. May want to try aligning the simpler AA5 radio first to get familiar with your signal generator and making basic adjustments.
