I'm looking for test and alignment points for a JC Penney 6241. I have searched these forums and found very little information. Also if anyone knows, What is the purpose of the "pilot light" inside this radio? Thanks in advance for any help.

For anyone else looking, Here's the info I have collected so far

JC Penney 981-8360 (6241):

RT101-AM IF Gain
RT202-AM Sq Range
RT201-AM S Meter
RT131-SSB IF Gain
RT251-AGC
RT252-SSB Sq Range
RT253-SSB S Meter
RT602-AM Power
RT701-SSB ALC
RT132-Balanced Modulator
RT002-TX Meter
D406-AMC Limiter
TX Tune-up: T132, T351, T701, T702, T703, T704, L702, L704
RT701 must be fully CW before TX-Tune JCPenney 6241 adjustments

SAMS Photofacts Manual #CB-235 may have more info. I do not have access to one to verify what info is in this
