Vary simple, no equipment needed.

Connect a clip lead to the receiver antenna. Set the AVC to FAST. Drag the other end of the clip lead along a metal surface, the chassis of the receiver works fine, or anything grounded and uninsulated.

The S Meter will jump all over the place with the noise.

Switch on the NB, and the noise is greatly diminished and the S-Meter will just lay on S-1 or S-2.

You'll know if it's working.

They are often out of alignment but is simple to do with a VTVM.
