I've actually convinced my wife this is the first step in the repair of 
ANYTHING.  She used to get really mad when I "adjusted" things, but now 
she actually tries this herself before asking me to fix it!

                 I used to use that procedure on the crappy radio in my 
'87 5KTQ. 
Right up to the night I was concentrating heavily on "adjusting" the radio 
at 
80 m/h and looked up to see a deer in the road ahead. Got slowed down a 
lot 
and I **almost** missed her. $1300 later the car was back in good shape.
                 I did not turn on the radio again for several months, 
when I replaced 
it with an aftermarket unit putting about 120 watts to the speakers. The 
aftermarket unit has never required any "adjustments". Haven't hit any 
deer 
since then, either.

                 After while.
