It contains a high-frequency tone with which you can align your tape recording head. If you have problems loading programs into your Apple from cassette tape, your recording head may need aligning. It is possible that your problem loading programs from cassette tape is being caused by a mechanical malfunction. Before using this tape, check that your tape recorder is mechanically sound and your Apple is working properly. You should be aware that tapes recorded with a poorly aligned head will not work properly when played back on a recorder with a properly aligned one. Before you use the Alignment Test Tone tape, it is a good idea to LOAD any programs you may have saved with your poorly aligned recorder and then reSAVE them with a recorder that you know is working well. You will need the following articles in order to align your tape recording head with this method: 1. The Alignment Test Tone cassette tape. 2. A non-conductive surface to work on, such as a wooden table or desk. If you work on metal or any other conductive surface, you may get an electrical shock, or damage your recorder's electronics. 3. A Phillips screw driver. 4. Batteries for your cassette recorder. The Alignment Test Tone is not a program. In fact, your Apple isn't even used in the head-aligning process. Disengage your cassette recorder from your Apple, and rewind the Alignment Test Tone tape to the beginning. Now, unplug your recorder, and you are ready to begin. Note: Your recording head can only be adjusted to approximately its ideal alignment with the Alignment Test Tone. For a more accurate adjustment, your tape recorder must be serviced by a trained technician. The head-aligning process is really quite simple. The tape is played on the cassette recorder you wish to adjust. The high-pitched sound emitted by the tape is about 5 kilohertz or five thousand cycles per second. While the tape is playing, the azimuth adjustment screw is adjusted until the sound made by the tape is at its loudest. When the sound is as loud as it will go, the recording head is adjusted properly. Cassette tape recorders are all a little different. On some of them the azimuth adjustment screw is easy to get to, while on others (such as the Panasonic) the outside cover must be removed from the recorder in order to locate the screw. Unplug your recorder, remove the Alignment Test Tone tape, and press the PLAY button. The recording head, (the shiny metal thing, usually centered just behind the control buttons) and some other metal and plastic parts, will move forward (toward the speaker). If you didn't see this in action, press the STOP button and then press the PLAY button again, watching carefully. 1 Azimuth Adjustment Screw 2 Recording Head 3 Control Buttons Locate the recording head in the photograph, then locate the recording head on your own tape recorder.

(The Panasonic has five screws holding the case to the inner mechanism, counting the one in the battery case.) Make sure you know which screw fits in which hole so that they won't get mixed up when you put your recorder back together.
