Personally, I think it's many years overdue to ditch the presumption that acceptable technical skills are piano brand specific. Shouldn't any competent tech be able to prep a new *anything* without a specific manufacturer's certification? I'm told that over half the PTG membership has never attended, that's *never*, a national convention. I don't understand how manufacturers pressuring their dealers will get the cheapest tuners the dealer can find into any sort of training program when they won't attend the training already offered them. Just my perspective. Ron N
