Hi Less

If you have a smart phone there is a good App which will do most you are 
asking, its called Cleartune it was a couple  of quid to buy. I use it 
to test my forks and the AcuII  is on pitch, The other useful thing is 
as most of us tend to have our mobile phone will us, most of the time we 
have a fork.
