[Kenwood] SM-220/BS-8 with the TS-940S

Chris -
I have an Addendum sheet titled "TS-940/BS-8 Alignment Procedure Notes" 
that clarifies the setup alignment. Essentially the interconnection 
examples shown in the SM-220 manual for the TS-830 work with the TS-940.

>Agreed! I would be interested in hearing about using the SM-220 in conjunction with my TS-940. I tried adjusting the pan adapter a while back, but couldn't get it calibrated properly, so any advice or help would be appreciated! For that matter, I would appreciate suggestions for replicating the other connections that can be used with the scope, as it came with no cables.
