I agree. If you must get a Sencore VA48 or 62.
Besides alignment they do almost anything you want.
At one point we had 3 VA48's on crash carts along with
a power right & scope. You cant beat them for usefulness.

I also agree alignment is rarely needed. In almost 40 yrs I
saw 2 sets that were tampered with & one GE that a xfrmer
got smashed. We did that one by eye. Thats tens of thousands
of sets I did, not including the other guys. What may help more
than anything is fresh NEW tubes in the tuner, 3 IF's and
1st video amp. Do note believe a checker here. They can
make a HUGE improvement especially on cheap sets &
early all tube jap sets.
There are also a few traps especially the 4.5 you can eyeball.

Just my 2 cents, I know there are many that dont agree.
