1. Test equipment connection is shown in fig. 2.
2. Playback standard
recording level portion on test tape (QZZCFM
315Hz) and, using VTVM, measure the
output level at test points [TP4 (L-CH), TP5 (R-CH)].
3. Make measurements for both channels.
Standard value: 0.42V [0.4V: at LINE OUT jack]
Adjustment
1. If the measured value is not within the standard, adjust TAPE
[1] VR1 (L-CH) or VR2 (R-CH), Tape
VR3
(L-CH) or VR4 (R-CH) (See fig. 1).
2. After adjustment, check "Playback frequency response" again.
