In response to your questions:

1) Yes, Audio Critic 1977 issue, several english audio magazines.

2) Fairly valid, you should probably check it at several points across
   record surface. Also it should preferably be an unmodulated groove -
   between tracks may be good enough. If it is non-linear I suspect the
   best place to have it closest to correct is the inside tracks (near
   label) because of the more difficult tracking there.

3) Tracking and thereby distortion and wear will be improved if anti-skate
   is fairly close to correct.

4) Anti-skate is at best a compromise, but I believe it is much better
   than just tracking heavier as some recommend.
