Russ;

Agreed. A good amplifier should be "transparent"; changing amplifiers should
not change the data.

Neil:
my approach, too.  "The first law of troubleshooting"-- ask what was
CHANGED.  In my experience, too many times the "what" has been the TC field
amp.  And now the system won't operate the same way at the same (apparent)
temperature. Russ, #1226B

Russ;

Yes, that type of data gives us grey hairs trying to find out the cause. My
approach to finding the problem is to ask myself "What is different between
yesterday and today?" Temperature is always pretty high on my list of "usual
suspects".

I have a class that I sometimes give for instrument techs that uses exactly
this analogy. Russ, #1226B

PS- what I'm most concerned about is the "gun" that shoots a tight group in
the first ring one day, and a tight group in the fourth ring the next day.
You can't hunt with a gun like that.  And you can't improve your LSR effort
with that kind of data, either.
