I am thinking about purchasing one, and would like to hear from anyone who uses it in regard to how well in performs. I've been tuning using a Peterson 420 which I purchased 25 years ago, and was well satisfied with that, unfortunately, it died, and I don't think it would pay to send it back to the company for rebuilding.<BR><BR>Thanks in advance for any and all replies.<BR><BR>Roy Czekay,<BR>Milwaukee, WI<BR>rczekay@aol.com<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></FONT></FONT></BODY></HTML>
