Knowledgeable guy but I think his name is Mr. Dull. The reason I wanted the list was because I flatter myself that I can DO all the steps, I just wanted to see Yamaha's recommended order, again. It's not really so different than Potter or Reblitz.

The videos are at once the most boring things I have ever seen, and the most exciting gathering of information I've seen.   Every technician would be well served to put as their highest priority to get a set of the videos.  They have done a magnificent job of not only explaining, but justifying everything, putting each step in a context of the whole picture, describing why 17 comes before 18, and the like. For learning the science of grand regulation I think there is no source which can match them. The mere list of steps is like taking wrapping off a piece of candy and saving it, but never getting to the candy.  Before I do my next major regulation project, I'll probably watch them all again, though I spend many dozens of hours with them even before Little Red School House. I admit I'm biased- I think there is not greater treasure trove of information on regulation than those videos. JMO les bartlett </div> </body> </html>
