Is it possible to get an accurate reading of the OD trimmer on a D'lite while it is still in the circuit??

Yes, with the amp off, measure the DC resistance from the wiper to ground.
30K-40K

Is there a magic number here that is HAD related. Originally i had read that guys were going by ear on this.

well yes you should listen to anything you adjust!

A good starting point is to have it around 9:30 to 10:00.
