1. Load a 400 Hz level tape and play it back.
2. Load
10 kHz, 15 kHz and 20 kHz PB frequency response tapes and adjust
the record/playback head azimuth to obtain maximum
levels on the VTVM
with each tape.
3.
Read the maximum
levels with each tape and check to insure that the levels
Main P.C.B.
against the 400 Hz level tape are within the following ranges.
R111, R211
If not, obtain satisfactory results by shorting R111
(R211) or R110 (R210).

Check to insure that the difference in level between 10 kHz (—20 dB) and
20 kHz (—20 dB) is less than 2 dB.
Conduct step 5 ''Record/Playback Head Azimuth Alignment'.
If above is not sufficient, refer to ''Playback Frequency Response Adjust-
