S-38 Questions about alignment.

Looking at the schematic it appears that bands 1 and 2
have fixed padders in them. For Band-2 its C-11, a 2200 mmf
cap and probably one of the postage stamps. If this has
changed value it will throw off the band. I think this is
more likely than the coil having shifted. This is a common
value so a replacement should not be hard to find. I suggest
changing it before doing anything else.
Trying to follow your posts across the different forums.
The 38 is a plain jane AA5 with shortwave bands, Don't try to read too
much into it. Image rejection is so poor on the top band that it really
makes little difference as to how you tune it. You're welcome to try,
though.
