Thanks to all for your responses.  Yes, Mike, those numbers track perfectly
with what I got.

As for sending it in, I'm not a big spender.  Actually, since I have in the
past sold tools etc at conventions I'm a lot like youall CAB (cheap ass
bastards).

I've repaired my sight-o-tuner several times and have schematics, but
Sanderson doesn't provide any for the accutuner.  I have 50 years of
experience as an electronic tech.  The accutuner technology is recent
compared to my experience, however.

One of my many projects waiting for time and inspiration is to use the
filter circuit of the SOT to build a listening device for use with tight
fitting head phones to diagnose noises and partials etc.  Also to fix my
car.  Someday!!

Thanks again
