This is a terrific link, thank you. Wish I had read this years ago."

That article was taken out of a publication called The Audio Perfectionist Journal. Its been out of print for a few years, but it was the best resource on high end audio I've ever seen. It was also released on pdf. If you ever come across some old copies, don't hesitate to get them. Unfortunately, I don't know what happened to mine or I would have posted them.
Crubio....if you set the A/S before VTF, you'll be lucky if the arm remains on the table long enough to measure it ;^)
M,

Indeed.

On a related subject, do you all use the Hi-Fi LP to set A/S ? I can't seem to get the third track (+16db) not to mis-tracking, I have never been able to do the 4th (torture) track. On the +15db evenly spaced tracks, the sound mis-tracks as well. BTW, I have a Schroeder Model 2 FW and a Dynavector XV1S on a Technics SP10.
Crubio....I just told the original poster not to use anti-skate.....that goes for EVERYONE
