Jim, what was Lew's "bottom of the hole" method?

    In keeping with the other responses so far, I was an RPT at the time (or whatever we were known as that week), tune verticals left-handed, and observe Lew Herwig's "bottom of the hole" method for tuning verticals. I also knew about "flag-poling", bridge roll, and other phenomena. The combination of knowing about and/practicing certain methods didn't help. Funny thing is, -as- I was tuning, my tests and checks were working out. The finished product was dog--meat.
