First of, the battery. I put a 625 in it and the meter seams to close. Is there a new replacement for the mercury one or what is the adjustment for the new battery?

Rf adjustment. The infi is slightly off. Trius noted this in another thread

"John: There is a recessed screw just above the top film rail that adjusts the horizontal alignment. I've never fiddled with it (haven't had to), so I don't have experience but I presume the procedure is the same as with other RFs."

I opened the back and noticed a brass screw in the area of the silver guides for the film. I backed it out a bit as this the only way it would go. But it didn't nake achange. Any other info would be great Thanks
 
Thanks Dave. I noted the manual " Recommendable battery replacement include PX625, Mallory RM635R, Everready E625, G.E. No. 625 " are these alkaline batteries?

Hmm, dunno what to say other than the obvious ... you are trying to focus on something truly at infinity, right? Like, you're at Bloor & Yonge and your focus point is the CN Tower...
