    I was in the Petro at Indiana/Ohio line on I-70 last week, and I was shocked to see the cb shop there doing an alignment correctly. He was using a signal generator and a VTVM to align the receive section. First time I have ever seen a place do that!

    There's a guy at this Flying J in Indiana at Exit 240 off Interstate 65 that also knows how to do receive according to the text books anyway which isn't good enough for me..

    Looks like they turned it into a pilot last time I was there it was a Flying J.
    There's a few technicians scattered around the country that do textbook work

    So using an rf generator and vtvm until a radio can hear .25mv isn't the way to do it? Lol

    How does one discern the difference between .25mv and .0339 uv in a CB radio?

    And I don't meant with specialized equipment but the radio itself?
