Is there a 3g. anti-skate weight for Graham arms?

I have seen a professional setup of the 2.2 where the anti-skate weight was pushed all the way up to the collar (least force), and wondered why. So, I would be interested in this as well. Keep us informed.

Sirspeedy,
Unfortunately the Graham installation instructions that come with the 2.1/2.2 do not describe how to set the antiskate. It does say that each detent on the calibrated shaft is equal to 1/2 gram, and it is clear from the design that placing the weight at the collar does not result in zero antiskate. What is the device you referred to for the Graham?

Please re-read my post. I said nothing about any antiskate inaccuracy of a Graham. My point was that placing the weight at the collar still results in some finite antiskate (by design), and that may have been appropriate for the TT setup done by this professional.

You could benefit from some additional care in your responses. In 2 short posts, you managed to unfairly criticize a known professional, state a tool existed and then retract it, suggest out of the blue that I need a test record (incidentally, I have 2), and suggest I am spending too much time obsessing with TT setup, when I didn't even bring it up, and don't need any help.

Were you having a bad day?

My appology for any unintended sarcasm and getting carried away. Maybe I was having a bad day! This particular cartridge is supposed to track at 1.8g. For that VTF, do you know where would one nominally place the weight as a starting position? Which detent?

According to the Graham User Manual, the weight can be positioned at any point along the shaft, independent of the detents, without need for any "set screw" adjustments. In fact the set screw is not there for this purpose.

Gerardff, I hope we haven't gotten too far away from your subject. Some of this information does relate to use of the antiskate mechanism.
