RE: "assuming the tuner has been pre-aligned"
Posted by 1973shovel on September 23, 2016 at 13:11:39:
Depending on which caps and resistors you replace, your "pre-alignment" could easily be trashed once certain components are replaced.
Also keep in mind that indiscriminately changing carbon resistors to, say, metal films in an RF circuit could cause you performance issues. Replacing parts in tuners isn't to be done casually, except perhaps for the power supply and output stage.
Take note of paragraphs two and three.
Good luck with it.
