What alignment document or instructions should I use?

Suggestions welcome.

Thanks,

Paul.

 

This model page is missing the text procedure on how to align this chassis.

I found the full alignment procedure on this page. This model has all the instructions for the BX998 chassis listed under the FX995a model radio.

Hello Paul,

Use the ".....abgl1" and "...abgl2" documents for Alignment instructions within the All Schematics section listing of the 19 items listed under Administration.

Robert,

Thank you for your reply.  I do have those two pages.  In fact I have all 9 pages downloaded.  And I still did not see the written alignment procedure.  I did however find a procedure on this site. 

By the way - You kindly taught me something new about RM.  I did not know all the schematics can be seen in a list view!  I will be using that tool. 

I would be happy to upload it but I do not want to violate any copyright laws. 

Now all I have to do is type all the German words into a translator to figure out what to do.  

There appears to be about 13 pages of text I think explaining the theory of operation and alignment.

Sheesh!  That will take some time.  But I want to do the job correctly.  So I have to do the work!  Then I can upload my work.

Thanks again,

Paul.

Paul,

Welcome to the club - I have been typing from either German or the Dutch language for quite some time. . . the first was when I typed in 8 or 9 pages (I began in 2004) of data to understand the Grundig 5040W3D. And then I even had help from the esteemed engineer Herr Hans Knoll. That was the Grundig 4040/5040/5050 Technische daten TI 2/54 . . . .I could never have understood the re-stringing procedures without the help from  Hans Knoll.

The complete PHILIPS Service documente (all 27 pages in the Dutch language) is also downloadable from the NL Oude radio forum. Again, you can type in thetext and then translate or take the material to an Office Max or Office Depot; and perhaps they will have the OCR software which will directly convert the document into "text" for translation.

The alignment table for the BX998A, however, is shown clearly beginning on page 8. 

Good luck in whichever method you use. Just having a model BX998A is worth all of that effort!

Respectfully,

Robert
