CTC-16 hard of hearing + alignment instructions???

Ok, I want to get a color set working for my apartment (no way is the '7 comming over here), and I'm split between my CTC-16 9smaller cabinet + cooler looks) or my Sylvania (CTC-15 based but dead vert section and horz drive problems). Anyway, I figure i'll tackle the RCA first anyway. The IF section was a mess on it, and I got it aligned roughly using the Sylvania's book as a guide - I don't have the RCA shop proceedure for '16XL. It's hard of hearing - the Sylvania's got MUCH better sensitivity. I'm guessing I either screwed up, or what I suspect is really going on - something's amiss in the tunner. What is the normal range of AGC voltages I should see on it, and the B+? There any common sensitivity killers (I recall hearing some of them were prone to bad tubes)?

Ok, I also need a copy of the actual RCA book - AG Tannenbaum no longer has it! Who else carries schematics and Sams and all on these?

I need to straighten out the chroma section too

I know this set's got the performance in there, it just needs some work...
