That is why I regard the arm board being level with respect to azimuth (it is) as more important because that will cause uneven wear and likely not sound good. The 0.1° error is the armboard tilted sightly down towards the table which if it has any effect is going to make the arm want to move towards the middle of the side of a record, in effect slightly increasing skating force for the first few tracks, then decreasing it for the last few tracks. Well, I already have to accept that anti-skating force is only correct at one point on a side, and as Bill says, a warp in the record will cause far more variation from ideal.
