RE: Oscilloscope For Tube Radio Repair & Alignment

I almost NEVER use a scope when I'm aligning tuners..If you want to look at 455khz IF or a 19khz pilot signal on a scope,a 1 mhz would work however,the scope I've been telling people to buy for years is the Sencore SC61..Its dual trace, 100mhz, and it has a built in freq counter..It is also easy as pie to fix and it cost less than 100 dollars these days.
What you really really need for alignment is a good DVM,a stable signal generator,and if you want to do FM stereo you need an FM stereo generator..
