Fellows,

After one has done a good receiver cleaning and before ones jumps into an 
electrical alignment of the receiver a good mechanical alignment is in order.

At http://www.r-390a.net/ under Wei-Li's Pearls of wisdom is a couple of 
papers on cleaning and oiling the gear train. A popular wish is for collection of 
wisdom on the alignment of both the R390 and R390/A receivers. That wish feels 
like a small book in its self and needs some decomposition into manageable 
sections. An electrical alignment begins with a mechanical inspection and 
adjustment as necessary. Most receivers having been well adjusted mechanically need 
no adjustment. However a proper inspection is in order. Before plunging into 
an electrical alignment section the mechanical alignment should be conducted.

Here is your chance to ask any question you ever wanted on the mechanical 
alignment of either receiver. 

Here is the call for help. Will every one who has saved a bit of mail on 
mechanical adjustment, clamps, parts, bolts, screws, where to get things, 
reworking the mechanical counter and any aside for the mechanical aspect of the RF 
gear train please post it again as Mechanical Alignment Input. Will any one who 
remembers something useful from a mail please go out to the archives and mine 
it out. Please post the information back on the mail. 

Please include names for any thing you can. I want to include those into the 
text to get credit to contributors. Let us not have many new web pages that 
present the idea this knowledge just fell into the Internet from anonymous.

Thanks

Roger L. Ruszkowski
