Tone Arm Balancing

First of all, I don’t know if this would go under "vintage", but it seemed the only logical choice. I read the posts from 7+ years ago, and I am now more confused. I’m bringing my Technics SL1300 MK2 out of mothballs from the early 80s. I’m trying to remember the procedure for balancing the tonearm. I pushed the counterweight onto the tonearm, felt it seat properly, and it balanced pretty easily. I then turn the counterweight until it read 1.5 grams. I think that’s what the old Pickering cartridge wanted back so many years ago. I then matched the anti-skate with the same 1.5 setting. Did I do it right?
