In my quest to align my R8, I have come to an issue. I've set the REC CAL level on each card to the proper level, and now it's time to adjust the METER CAL parameter so that all the meters read 0 when a -10dBV signal is encountered. For some reason the Fostex engineers put the METER CAL knob on the connector board, so that it is covered by the 8 R/P cards that conveniently have their controls face up.
Since the meters do in fact need tweaking, I'll have to take the cards out to access the METER CAL knobs. I've tried pulling the cards but they don't come out. How do I get them out?
