Hi,
My questions might be general, not really related to this particular model.
In Rider's guide there is an alignment procedure described, were he talks about "weak" signal from signal generator, "strong" signal, readings of output meter etc.
- what are the values of generator's signal in Volts - to make it strong and weak ?
- where do I connect my "output meter"?
- some measurements are done with Volume in "max" position - how do I handle this? The sound will be terribly loud!

May be Rider says about it somewere, but I only have some scans, not the book itself.

Thank you guys in advance for you suggestions!

Leonid
