A full tuner alignment took 10 minutes which was required if the eeprom was corrupted. Still have that as well.

Ah... more memories. Yes, I remember the generator. We had one of those, as well.
And, also remember how the generator would receive the IR signal from the remote control transmitter, as would the set under test, and both change channels together during the alignment.
10 minutes was a lifetime to me.
