FM alignment
#21

Mondial, it has arrived. Now, for a few questions: I've owned some AM/FM radios in the past that have had instructions for an alignment with a sweeper and scope. Now, of course, the 3 FM radios I have only have the instructions with an output meter. I tried to hook things up and don't get the pattern on the scope that I'm looking for. I'm pretty sure I know the proper settings on the sweeper.
My basic question: Is there a standard place to connect the generator and scope on all radios no matter what type? Is there somewhere that I can read about this to get a good understanding? I've been watching videos on you Tube and one guy was using the equipment. The problem was that he started out by pointing and saying, "I've got my sweep generator connected down there and I have my scope connected down here".
So that's where I'm at. BTW, I used the generator on CW and it works fine.

Thanks
