Hi

Why all the rush to speed up patch reading? Is there a prize or something? :-)

I found that concentrating on accuracy gets much better results. When I was first looking at 
the PF PRO I was asked by lots of people exactly how long it took me to read xxx patches - 
like it -really- mattered ;-)

OK, it's just me then ... I'll get my coat... :-)

No rush, it's hard to see where the nosecone is sometimes on the 
darker patches. By putting some type of making on the nosecone it 
becomes easier to place the spectro over the patch. The benefit is 
more accuracy and faster reading of the patch sheet. 

You never know maybe there will be a patch reading contest sometime, 
might be fun too. :-)

I am still pimping out my Spetro myself, once I get some flame 
decal's for the sides I'll post some pic's....
