Thank you caption kilowatt I do appreciate your input I don't mean to get you flustard... I pay for my scope online call frys with my order number ask them to check the scope out for any defects and make sure it is with in specifications then pay a small fee drive and hour and a half to the city ( where their located ) and pick up the scope place it carefully into the front seat of my truck Buckle it in the seat belt and carefully drive it home assuming I don't get in a terrible accident on the way home I will feel confident I did every thing i possibly could to ensure the quality of my work when I align a radio...

That is all I was saying, in my career as a diesel technician that's 25% of my day verifying the equipment I'm am using is accurate before I make the assumption that it is and completely erraticate my results and send me on a wild goose chase and waste my time and money


As far as the whole me second guessing the standard of anything is like buying 5 tape measures to make sure you cut a piece of wood correct... Or using 6 different $800 torque wrenches to make sure the head bolts and main caps are torqued correctly... Or buying 10 different measuring cups to make sure the cake has enough flower in it... Or buying 8 different thermometers and making sure they all read the exact same.... I understand what your saying completely don't get me wrong and don't take offense to what I have to say all I'm saying is I want my work on radios to be like everything else I do and that is the best of my ability and if asking some one to check the calibration of a scope and me personally drive it home from the store my self gives me peace of mind than that's what I will do to ensure I have done every thing I can to have a good quality service done...
