Need help with anti-skating on Technics SL-1210GR

Hi, I have a Lyra Delos on my 1210GR. When using a blank record or doing the end-of-grooves technique the arm continue to go towards the center unless I have the anti-skating set to 3. I can drop the arm at the beginning of a blank disk and it will move towards the center until I turn the anti-skating all the way up to 3. Repeatable every time.

Do I have a faulty anti-skating? Should I leave it at 3?

I have confirmed the weight at 1.75 with two different scales. I’m also pretty sure the alignment and overhang are correct although I’m not an expert at doing the last two.

Any suggestions?

I believe that was stated well before Mijo chimed in by another member.
However it does seem that the consensus is that the run out groove method is valid if one does not have a true test lp, just that the OP was taking it too far not quite understanding the desired result.

I also highly recommend fine tuning the "by ear" method for day to day usage and tweaking of AS.
