Mark Story, I appreciate your statements and I too feel just as comfortable tuning aurally as with my SAT II but I can do better, more consistent work with the SAT in the same amount of time. I also feel RPT status must be reserved for those who can demonstrate acceptable aural skills. Unfortunately, many "senior" technicians unjustly equate your and my use of an electronic device as a substitute for quality. Most technicians use power tools in their shops to increase quality, reduce time on job, and improve consistency. Those power tools only work as well as the user - ditto for ETD's. They are only tools and the quality of work is in the hands of the user. Thank you for your comments. Del Gittinger, RPT 72056.2032@compuserve.com Marion, OH
