Tape outputs & testing. Help!

Posted by rob't on June 8, 2004 at 07:37:05:
Guys,
How do I use a multitester to determine if my tape outputs are actually outputting the voltage they are supposed to?
Plug the + lead into the output jack and ground the negative? Is there some minimum value I should see? It is an Eico HF-81.
Your help is appreciated. The reason for asking is I connected my Eico phono stage out to an amp without a phono stage. No sound was heard or rather at full volume on the amp, you could hear something barely audible.
