[ARC5] R-27 alignment

[John Saxon]

Thanks again, Mike...you always come through :-)
As it turns out, I have AN 16-30ARC5-2, just happened to use another of the many downloaded manuals, in this case NAVWEPS.

  Brian is right on, John - the on-line alignment versions of NAVWEPS 16-30ARC5-501 seem to be nice scans that have been cleaned up with automatic word processing tools and there are conversion artifacts in them.  You might do better with one of the ARC-5 HF manuals like AN 16-30ARC5-2.  Here is the relevant information from Chapter 5.

   Hello John   My alignment manual is likewise silent on the settings. However from other ACR-5 / SCR-274-N documents, for the R-27, C4F needs to be half meshed and C4G needs to be fully meshed.   In my experience, if those trimmers are not in the correct positions, tracking and frequency range suffer.   73 de Brian, VK2GCE.

In the manual we find the following:   "Before beginning alignment, check the positions of C4F and C4G and adjust them if necessary to the position shown in the table which follows."   A table follows, but positions for C4F and C4G are not given.   Do I do anything to them?
