Anti skate

[ljcarr]

Can someone please give me some guidance I have a clearaudio Prrformance SE TT with the Satisfy Carbon arm on it, I've set the tracking force for the stylus which is 2.2, now setting the antiskateing it says in the manual that it should be equal to the tracking force but there are no numbers or settings on the antiskate dial but there is a table in the manual ! But the numbers are in Nm not grams tracking force. My options according to the table are:

minimal antiskating 10 – 15mN
medium antiskating 15 – 20mN
maximum antiskating. 20mN and more

Divide by 10 to give you grams.

eg 10 mN = 1 gram.

It's my experience that bias needs vary from stylus to stylus, not just cartridge to cartridge. Set it approximately and go from there. Mistracking on the right channel means too little bias is applied and mistracking on the left usually means too much has been dialled in. If the bias makes no difference here, blame the records..... I'm really not being glib here, as I have some LP's where the mistracking was cut or worn into these records by a former bad stylus and no adjustment will clear it.
