So accurate actual height of the curve is mostly irrelevant as long as you get the specified shape vs. frequency.

The touchiest part of the procedure often involves the signal injection cable/circuit, the ground point, length of leads, etc.
The Eico does have a variable marker frequency dial with adjustable amplitude but, I can't possibly know if a marker frequency selected on a crudely numbered dial scale is correct. My B&K alignment generator has all of the markers pre set and ready to go...for TVs aligned using frequencies around 20 mc higher.
