[TenTec] Century/21 Alignment tool?

[Dave Humbertson]

  Before you make any electrical adjustments, you may want to check and 
be sure that you have the PTO reassembled AND installed correctly with 
all dials, etc mechanically aligned. Most of the time the alignment you 
are referring too is to insure good tracking. I am assuming that the 
calibrations was not off that much before (35 KHz). That is a big 
correction to make with the inductor.  I have rebuilt a Corsair II and 
an Argosy 525D, but not my C21, so I don't speak from firsthand 
experience on this particular radio.
