3)
Load a blank test tape (Scotch No. 150) on the tape
recorder and set the Rec/Playback Knob to "Rec"
position.
4)
Supply a 1000 Hz signal from the audio oscillator to
the Line Input, and adjust the volume control so
that the VU Meter indicates "O'? VU (intermediate
between red and black).
5)
Record the tape and check playback to see whether
the- VU Meter indicates "O"' VU.
6) If the pointer of the VU Meter fails to register "0"
VU, repeat recording and playback by adjusting the
semi-fixed resistor VR 102 (2 KB) on the recording
pre-amplifier until the "0" VU reading is obtained
both on recording and playback.
