Generally, on cassette decks, adjust the recording level
so that the peak meters to —4dB, and on reel-to-reel
tape decks the peak level meters deflect as close as
possible to 0 dB. However, depending on the broadcast
programs
or the
tapes
you
use,
some
further
ad-
justments
may
be necessary.
You can determine

level for your tape deck
after several trials, using the suggested levels as a star-
ting point.
To deactivate the cal tone circuit, press the CAL TONE
button again.
