Watching and sometimes waiting for the spinner to actually get a reading can
waste a lot of time.  Our ears can pick up the tuning a lot faster than the
spinner can get the reading for it.

I don't think it's the calculations that slow the process 
down, I think it's watching the spinner. The ETD users I've 
watched tend to go much farther into the tonal envelope 
watching what the spinner does, than aural tuners just listening.

Whatever.
