[Hallicrafters] SX-42 question

[Edward B Richards]

Hi guys;

It is the pest again. I am having trouble aligning the two top bands e.g.
27-55 and 55-108. I don't know if the oscillator injection is supposed to
be above or below the signal on these bands. I could not get a signal
through at 50 mc on band 5 no matter where I set the oscillator trimmer
capacitor. I replaced the capacitor and now I get a weak signal through
when the oscillator is at 60.7 mc, which is high side injection (I
think). This is the only setting that allows a 50 mc signal to come
through. Can some kind soul tell me what the oscillator injection is
supposed to be? Thank you very much.
