It is very very broad.  I watch for the dip on each end, then calculate how 
many turns or partial turns to get it to the center of the range.   Then close 
enough.   About the best you can do !!

something wrong.

      hello gang,

      well i finally got all my test gear in order. i can now do a proper 
alignment on my drakes and other projects. so here is the first thing i ran 
into. on my r4a 13 tube i was doing good until i made it to step B the 50kc if 
alignment. it says to adjust t7 and t10 for max s meter but i saw no change. 
even to a extreme adjustment. any suggestions?
