  Subject: The Examiner has no Clothes!


  The examiners in my old chapter would probably rather pierce their =
eardrums than show the rebuilding workmanship or behavior this person =
has.  I'm posting this anonymously to protect his/her identity.  I'm =
planning to send him/her a copy of the responses.  I'm also interested =
to know whether you think I'm out of line, here.=20

  Questions:=20

  1)   How many turns should there be in a tuning pin coil in the tenor =
section of=20
  an S&S "B?"=20
  2)   Should the tail of a string pass over one duplex scale bar, or =
between two?=20
  3)   Should a single string hitchpin loop contact/cross a duplex bar?=20
  4)   Should the wires be parallel as they leave the hitchpin?=20

intimidate someone who disagreed with one aspect of your work?=20
  10)  Rebuilders:  Does a technician have to chose to do bellywork in =
order for you to consider his/her opinion?=20

  Actually, only rebuilders need respond, as he/she made clear that =
those were the only people he/she would respect in any way.=20
