What kind of reports are they? Are these reports anecdotal? The reason that I ask is most of the tuners I know who have started tuning electronically have said it has enhanced their tuning ability. Of course these are conscientious people who care about their skill and profession. David Koelzer >> I mentioned one name at the beggining of my report,. Carol Beigel admitted she has lost that edge. One more example. (I don't want to use names here, because while I know the person who told me the story, I do not know the name of the person who lost the ability). An RPT technician was tutoring a student and asked another RPT to help. The "other RPT" was reluctant because he admitted he has lost the ability to tune aurally. These are two examples. Is that enough? Wim
