Shallow repetition

[Roger Jolly]

Hi Jarred,
               As an addendum to Ed's advice, you may need to check the
tailing
very carefully,as well as back check height and rake.  If the geometry is not
healthy in this area it may be difficult to regulate to the 1/2" spec.  Once
you get every thing in good shape with the checking, you will be suprised how
much you will be able to increase spring tension.
Lightly checkering the tails will help for ppp checking with strong springs
Shortening the blow distance and dip can also help, but there will be a trade
off in max power.
If you are living in a fairly stable humidity area, pushing the after touch to
about .010" to .015" will help.
Regards Roger
