FM Alignment Tools

[jblmar]

Anyone know where I can get the proper plastic FM alignment tools?
I'm just about set to to take on the art of FM alignment. Got the ST 1000A. Just need to find a good digital counter and the tools.

Radio Shack sold these a few years ago on the pegoard racks. Dunno about now though. Might be worth a visit. If they still have 'em, they are probably still cheap as dirt.

Yep... most anywhere. Ratshack, most of the online parts suppliers as well. If you're gonna start with a 1000A DO a little more reading up & hope the transformers cooperate with ya. Did you pick up a generator for setting the mpx? I'm asking - I'm curious what you might have picked up. You'll have to set 19 & 38 khz if I remember right. Seems like you also have a higher freq. one to set as well. Been a while since I looked at it.

Do a search on GC Electronics.They make or have made for them most of the allignment kits.They have an online catalog,but you may have to buy from a distributor.
