The best alignment tapes had a series of data blocks that could be read at high speed. The program knew what the data should be, so when there were errors it could "work out" how badly aligned the tape head was...
There was also the Load-It datasette, which had a tuning knob (oo-err) on the top and a series of LEDs - the more that were lit, the stronger the signal.
