Hi David,
I can't imagine anyone who claims to be able to crack the unison Vergil =
Smith style wanting or needing to use an ETD.

  Marshall,

  How visually impaired are you?   If you can see the red spinner fairly =
well, the Accutuner might be the way to go...but there are numbers =
involved in setting it up.  Their size is about like   8.4   8.7  9.3

  I know I'm not going out and buying and ETD right away, but I was =
wondering what size font the print is. ie. 10 12 etc.  Since I use the =
city bus system, the smaller ones woule be a better match for me ,but =
depending on the print.  I can see the red light on the spinner pretty =
well. Are they pretty much the same in price, tune lab, verituner etc.  =
I know the Acutuner III is in the neighborhood of 1700$=20
