Hi Ken, I started out as K1QCF in 1961 with an RCA AR88 and a BC 610 and 
don't remember if it had an S meter or not.  For the last 25 or so years I 
have been repairing mostly Collins and do use the S meters during alignment. 
As a rule I keep the rf gain on my Paragons at mid scale and rely on my ears 
to hear the signals.  The masking tape might be a little extreme. IMHO this 
whole deal on S meter is a lot of nit picking a fine radio.
