Lesson
Steps in Tracking and
1 Aligning AM/FM Receivers
In the hyped period of radio communication, AM and FM radio’s use becomes
a daily routine for everyone. Radio has always been there as a companion for
someone who is doing a job, studying, or simply relaxing. Some opted to listen to
AM radio as they want to hear more of the current events, news, and public service
programs, while others are delighted by the harmony and beat as they listen to
their favorite music and songs.

Using AM or FM radio is not just about turning on the switch and tune in to
your favorite frequency, but one must know how to align the radio and the
intermediate frequency circuits. Alignment is the process of adjusting the
intermediate frequency (IF) and radio frequency (RF) circuits for best reception
(sensitivity, selectivity, and absence of whistles) and accurate indication of the
frequency/wavelength on the tuning scale.

What’s In

In Quarter 3 Module 4, you have learned to interpret the diagram and layout
of the AM/FM receiver components for accurate circuit assembly. Do you still
remember some of the components of the AM and FM radio receiver? To recall
these, let us do this simple activity.
Direction: Identify the AM/FM radio components being described. Use the items in
the box as your reference.

Mixer-Converter transistor Detector Intermediate Frequency

1. Its function is to intercept and collect the radio signals coming from
the radio broadcasting or transmitting radio stations.
2. Its work is to select which of the collected radio signals at the antenna
should enter the radio tuner.
3. It is located in the radio receiver get and is local to the radio receiver.
4. A transistor used to mix the signals coming from the antenna which is
tuned- in by ' the tuning capacitor and the signal that comes from the local
oscillator.
5. This section of the radio tuner is like an electronic gate. It automatically opens to
permit this IF signal to pass through and enter the radio tuner.

 What is It

Alignment for an amplitude-modulated radio receiver consists of two types of

adjustments of the different tuned circuits present in the receiver. The first is to
align the intermediate frequency (IF) transformers to the receiver’s correct
intermediate frequency (IF). It is termed intermediate frequency (IF) alignment. The
second is to align the input tuned circuits to match the scale/dial markings such
that the wanted station or frequency is producing the correct value of intermediate
frequency (IF) when tuned on the dial to the frequency marked on the dial. It is
termed the radio frequency (RF) alignment. Radio frequency (RF) alignment is also
known as tracking.

Preliminary arrangements should be made, and special precautions are taken

either for intermediate frequency (IF) alignment or the radio frequency (RF)
alignment.

Intermediate Frequency (IF) Alignment

Standard Signal Power Output

Radio Receiver
Generator Meter

Figure1. Set up for IF alignment of AM radio receiver

The setup for the intermediate frequency (IF) alignment of a AM radio receiver
is shown in the figure above. A signal generator is used to test equipment that
produces an electrical signal in the form of a wave. This is used as a stimulus for
the item being tested. A power output meter is used in addition to the standard
signal generator to measure the power output of the radio receiver.

Preliminary Steps for Intermediate Frequency (IF) Alignment

The following are arrangements to be made before alignment:

1. Automatic volume control (AVC)/automatic gain control (AGC) is to be made
inoperative.
2. Volume and tone controls should be kept in maximum resistance position.
3. The loudspeaker is to be replaced by an alternative frequency (AF) power
output meter with an acceptable impedance range equal to that of the
loudspeaker’s impedance.
4. Radio receiver should be tuned to the medium wave (MW) band.
5. Radio receiver should be tuned to the lowest frequency in the medium wave
(MW) band.

5
 6. A capacitor with a 0.1 µF capacitance is connected in series with the radio
frequency (RF) lead when the signal is injected.
7. The cores of intermediate frequency (IF) transformers are to be tuned using
only nonmagnetic screwdrivers or unique core tuning alignment tools.

Step-by-Step Intermediate Frequency (IF) Alignment Procedures

1. The signal generator is to be tuned to the Intermediate frequency (IF) of the

radio receiver.
2. It should be kept in the internal modulation position. The modulation depth
should be adjusted to 30% or above.
3. Attenuator is to be adjusted to a minimum value.
4. The intermediate frequency (IF) signal is to be applied to the collector of the
second intermediate frequency (IF) amplifier through the 0.1 µF capacitance
capacitor. The attenuator should be adjusted to get a convenient reading in
the power output meter. Then, the core of the second intermediate frequency
(IF) transformer should be adjusted to get a maximum reading in the power
output meter.
5. The intermediate frequency (IF) signal should be shifted to the base of the
second intermediate frequency (IF) amplifier. An improvement in the output
should be indicated by the power output meter due to the gain of the power.
6. Same procedure is to be repeated at the collector and base of the first
intermediate frequency (IF) amplifier. The cores of the corresponding
intermediate frequency (IF) transformers are to be adjusted for maximum
output in the power output meter.
7. Signal should be shifted now to the base of the frequency converter transistor.
In this case, the attenuator is to be kept in the minimum position. Now,
adjustment of the core of the intermediate frequency (IF) transformer in the
collector of the frequency converter should be adjusted to get maximum
response.
8. Finally, the radio frequency (RF) probe must be kept short from the ferrite
antenna. The power output meter is to be disconnected, and the loudspeaker
is to be connected. A reasonable 400 Hz note will be heard from the speaker
showing the receiver’s sensitivity for intermediate frequency (IF).
9. The intermediate frequency (IF) stages’ alignment should be repeated two to
three times to finally arrive at the correct setting.
10. Once arrived at the final setting, the cores are to be sealed to prevent
tampering with the user’s cores.

Step-by-Step Radio Frequency (RF) Alignment or Tracking

All the preliminary arrangements listed for intermediate frequency (IF)

alignment are common for the radio frequency (RF) alignment. The difference is
that different bands will be selected for tracking.

A dummy antenna will be used. It is recommended for the particular

frequency band under consideration. The following are the steps to be followed:

6
 Position of pointer Adjustment to be made for getting
maximum output
Switch the receiver to the medium wave band (550kHz to 1600 kHz)

550 kHz 550 kHz M.W. Oscillator coil

1600 kHz 1600 kHz Trimmer of M.W. Osc. Coil
Repeat this adjustment twice then:

840 kHz 840 kHz Slide the M.W. antenna coil on

the ferrite rod.
Repeat the above two operations twice to get tuning as close to the dial marking
as is possible.
Switch the receiver to the short wave band (4.5 MHz to 16 MHz)

04.5 MHz 04.5 MHz S.W. Oscillator Coil

16.5 MHz 16.5 MHz Trimmer S.W. Osc. Coil
Repeat this adjustment twice then:

05.0 MHz 05.0 MHz S.W. Antenna Coil

Repeat the above two operations twice to get tuning as close to the dial marking
as is possible.

Tune the standard signal generator to the desired frequency. The signal will
not be directly connected to the receiver’s input, but the probe will be kept close to
the receiver’s antenna coils. If the receiver has several short wave bands, the above
different process is to be repeated at all the different short wave (SW) bands tuning
to the lowest frequency, highest frequency, adjusting Oscillator Coil at the lowest
frequency, and adjusting the oscillator trimmer at the higher end. The antenna
should be tuned in the mid-frequency of the band. It completes the process of
tracking the receiver.

FM Radio Receivers Alignment

 Alignment of an FM receiver will differ somewhat from the procedures used
for AM receivers. It may surprise you to learn, however, that this alignment can be
done with standard servicing equipment having suitable ranges.
1. The discriminator will be lined up, a high-resistance DC voltmeter, preferably a
vacuum tube voltmeter, is connected across one diode load resistor.
2. To introduce a signal, connect the service signal generator to the grid-chassis of
the limiter tube. The signal generator should be set exactly to the IF value for
FM, and its output should be as high as possible, about 1 volt.
3. Adjust the primary of the discriminator transformer for maximum output. Now
connect the DC voltmeter across both diode loads, and adjust the secondary of
the discriminator transformer for zero output voltage.
4. To align the resonant circuit ahead of the limiter stage, connect the signal
generator (still set at the IF value for FM) to the grid-chassis of the stage ahead of
the limiter. A 0 to 100 micro-ampere meter can be connected in the grid return
of the limiter, or a high-resistance voltmeter, a vacuum tube voltmeter (VTVM)
can be connected across the grid return resistor which produces the automatic
control volume (AVM) voltage. Adjust the resonant circuit ahead of the limiter for
maximum deflection.
5. When a peak reading is obtained, the output reading should be high enough to
indicate that the limiter is being saturated. To do this, the signal generator
output should be set to a high output value. This can be checked by noting the
output across one diode load in the discriminator; increased input to the limiter
should show a little rise in output voltage. This condition is essential, for it is
necessary to have the same loading of the limiter on the resonant circuit as
would exist in normal operation. This loading affects the response of the
resonant circuit. If you align this circuit with little load, a different peak setting
will result.
6. Advancing the signal generator one stage at a time aligns each resonant circuit
for maximum limiter grid current or self-rectified DC voltage. The IF channel for
FM will be aligned when the signal generator is connected to the input of the
mixer-first detector.
7. Next is the alignment of the preselector and oscillator. For this adjustment, the
signal generator is connected to the two antenna posts. The oscillator is always
aligned first, and the preselector is adjusted for maximum grid current or voltage
in the limiter. The alignment will, of course, depend upon the type of tracking
employed. One method worth mentioning involves the iron-core coil in the
oscillator. The signal generator and the receiver dial are set at a low frequency
(about 42 to 43 mc.), and the oscillator core aligner is adjusted for maximum
output. Then the signal generator and receiver are set to a high frequency (about
49 to 50 Hz). Likewise the trimmer shunting the oscillator variable condenser is
adjusted for maximum output.
An FM receiver should be tuned for the least noise, not for maximum sound
level. An electric eye working on peak limiter grid current offers an excellent tuning
indicator.
