ABSTRACT:
A method of aligning a tape head with the use of a calibration head that is adapted to produce a calibration tape having a pair of spacedly disposed write signals extending substantially normal to the direction of tape travel but at opposite small equal angles to the normal. The calibration tape is passed over the tape head that is to be aligned. The calibration tape is read to detect sequential write signals to determine differences in amplitude therebetween so that the azimuth of the tape head may be adjusted until the detected write signals are of equal amplitude.
