Verituner help - (Wrap-up)

[Phil Ryan]

Dear List,

Thanks for all your help.  From it, I was able to clear the muddy waters 
about overpull percentages.  Mainly what I learned (especially from 
David Bauguess, the manual's author) was that when you choose 
(highlight) all three percentages in the display, *you get three* 
*targets(triangles) on the screen.*  You can then choose the target 
(percentage) you want to aim for on that particular note.  I tried it, 
it works!  Thanks Jon, Tom, Bill, David and David.
