The reason the exam records don't bear this out is because of the 2 oct=
ave aural tuning portions of the exam.  You can't take the test with a =
ETD alone.  You must pass the aural portion.   I am simply saying an ET=
D will pass accuracy-wise but the poor think can't take the aural porti=
on.

So I just checked with Michael Kimbell, our San Francisco CTE and tunin=

Then Michael is on Drugs, IMO. 
The simple fact remains, that the Test Instrument is tuned Aurally, by =
at least Three tuners, one of which must be a CTE. Since the piano is t=
uned Aurally, there is no way in hell, the SAT will reproduce this! I'm=
 sure if you check with Paul Brown, he'll tell you that exams, of recor=
d, do not bear out this B.S.! As for the claims of Reyburn and Veritune=
r...That smatters of the "Diaphramatic Soundboard" B.S. that we so blat=
antly poo poo, on this list almost every day. Sales Hype, IMO.
