A novice is a novice whether he tunes by ear or uses equipment.
When are we going to stop the WAR? I've seen plenty of novices on
both sides of this war.  I've also seen plenty or experts on boths
sides.  Let's give it a rest.  OR would you care to take up my challenge
for a Tuneoff?  The next scheduled Tuneoff is at Orlando, Florida
at the Convention this summer. Virgil Smith and I will go at it again.
This time we will have 2 pianos apiece and plenty of expert judges.

Electronically Yours,
Jim Coleman, Sr.
