John:

I'm sure that the Accufork and TuneLab both produce a sine wave. =
 Howver, unless you have a very capable speaker there is going to=
 be distortion there and partials added.  It takes quite a good=
 speaker to reproduce a 440Hz sine wave with no distortion.

Hi,
Al Sanderson told me that the Accu-Fork, gave a pure tone, with=
 no harmonics.

To check your accu fork open the battery compartment and look for=

Hello Joe,
 
Thanks for the info. I didn't make myself clear. My AccuFork is=
 right on pitch. What I was wondering about was if the harmonic=
 content of a newer unit was any different from the partial-rich=
 output of mine.
 
Thanks for the reply,
Bob Davis
