I recall after last years convention the subject of IF alignment was mentioned. But I would imagine trying to pull that off in a short timeframe would not be practical due to the complexity and all the steps and equipment involved. I believe most of us understand that this is an area you don't attempt unless you know completely what you are doing and determining if it's necessary to begin with.
Most times regular troubleshooting will suffice without the need to perform any IF alignments. I wouldn't mind going through the steps and knowing how to capture waveforms for comparision just to understand further what I'm looking at from someone more experienced at this than myself.
IF's were always presented to me as taboo with the shops I had been around with back in the day. Although in high school electronics we did attempt an alignment using a B-K 415 on one student's set and the results were not much better than before we started!
