1. The meter is an AC Voltmeter, in today's case a DMM set at V~, that you simply put across the primary of the output xfmr, or in some cases across the voice coil of the speaker (or the secondary of the output xfmr which is the same).
You peak your signals by looking at the Voltage reading.
And, yes, it is possible to tune by ear but it is that much less accurate.
2. Yes, wave traps are obsolete.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
