[TV MAN]

You need to have to get a more sensitive meter to read anything off your speaker. When I am aligning and testing, I use my Fluke 77 digital meter. It reads less than .5 volt depending on the setting of the volume control and generator. I find about .150 or so A/C is about what I can stand without going insane listening to it. I ususally set the gen and volume control to about that level, then you can adjust from there. I didnt used to think the meter was that important, I had ears, ok... Yes, well, that meter can see flutcuations and things that my ears cant hear. It is a good help. If you are going to do this kind of work, I reccomend a decent digital meter. My preference is a Fluke. They are easy to use and forgiving of user error.

Dont feel too bad - I am fighting an intermittant. Read the last page or so of my post on the 70 rebuild. You are blessed in that you have a definate problem rather than one that comes and goes. Hang in there.
