Hi Heathers.

I was helped promptly on tube line up on the AR3, and found the ID of the
unmarked tube, and that the wrong audio pa was in it.  Unfortunately, after
40 years, I seem to have forgotten some of the alignment details.  I tune low
end at about 10% up from bottom using osc coil and ant coil, then at the high
end using osc trim cap, but no ant trim cap (only the ant front panel
trimmer).  There are no coils for band 4.  I need to know :

1. When do you adjust the capacitor trimmer attached to the main cap.
2. How do you adj for band 4?

If anyone could send a brief summary of tune up steps to refresh my mind I
will be thankful. I can close my eyes and see myself tuning up my AR3 (long
since traded awy) but the details are fuzzy.
Thanks
Karl
