Is it accurate? (Has anyone actually tested it against another trusted tuner?)

We haven't compared this tuner to a verified calibrated tuning device, however, we also have one acoustic guitar with its own built-in tuner, and a Yamaha stage piano, which is likely fairly precisely on pitch. The acoustic guitar, mandolin, and electric bass we tune with the Intelliouch always, to our ears, match up very well with the other instruments pitch-wise.

It is accurate. I tuned a guitar with it and then played that guitar with a keyboard track and it was perfect. sometimes it takes a little longer than i would like for it to respond but that's true of all the tuners i have used.

I have not. Without comparing to a calibrated gauge, you won't know which has gauge is actually the accurate one. What I like about this gauge is that it gives me percise consistent results.. Hard to tell how accurate they are however like I mentioned.

It seems to be pretty accurate. When you are tuning there are bars that pop up and change colors. The closer you get to the note your looking for the more green they turn; all green = right note. Very easy to use. I am a beginner. There are other functions I haven't bothered with yet.

Yes, I had no problem with it being accurate. I do a lot of country road running and I have tracked it in my car the miles are the same. :)

It is accurate. If you do not listen to very high levels, it works great. It drives my 4 Dynaudio very well and they are demanding. When the charge is too much, the Wadia switches off automaticaly and you just have to switch it back on. For more info, write to me sergebarbeau@yahoo.com.Hope this helps.

flat out we havent a clue how accurate the number is. but the one I bought is consistant. the calibration knob is used to get your SWR its not used to calibrate the meter

It is reliable. As far as accuracy, I haven't compared the pressure reading to any other gauge but i believe it shows a little higher than actual air pressure. I usually put in a bit more air than the tires require, ie., like 40 instead if 38

Mine seems to give accurate readings...instruction sheet in box is fairly clear and easy to follow, even for an old timer like me.

Make SURE you have the seller test the ATSC tuner, as well as the satellite tuner before shipping out the receiver. I have read reviews that the ATSC tuner is bad, and I experienced the same thing when I got my first box. But once I requested a return, the seller tested BOTH tuners prior to shipping, and now I have an AWESOME box! The only setback is that I had to pay an additional $15 to ship the defective box back. But the seller did compensate me with a free additional remote control, so it was not a total loss. I am VERY HAPPY with my current Linkbox 8000HD Local. Like I said earlier, just make sure the seller tests everything prior to shipping. Make SURE you have the seller test the ATSC tuner, as well as the satellite tuner before shipping out the receiver.

Yes. Unfortunately, in my case, it captures singing quality with 100% accuracy. :)

I would say it is fairly accurate. I compared it to my more expensive Radio Shack and the numbers are very comparable.

I'm quite sure it is a digital tuner though I am not positive. I have it at another site and will be at that site on Saturday. I could check for you. Let me know. It works very very well. And the price is simply unbeatable.

I used one for a crystal radio, and in my design report I recorded an LCR meter gave mine a range from 80pf-365pf. Also FYI, Make sure you get a knob! Touching it directly can affect the circuit's Inductance or Capacitance (don't remember which one), which makes fine tuning very frustrating!

Yes the tuner is very good, as long as you have a good antenna. Very sensitive and picks up even the small stations.

Yes. It's a "chromatic" tuner, which means it will show you the name of the note you are singing - no matter what it is - and you'll see whether you are sharp or flat, or spot on. It's *very* accurate, very sensitive; so if you can sing a note sufficiently in tune to make this thing say "okay" - you're really good!

Brad, I play a 5-string bass and have had no problems tuning to the low B. Often I check the tuning accuracy of the notes I play most often, such as, low C, D, F, G, Ab, Eb, etc. It displays the note that I am hitting and indicates if it is sharp or flat. I don't foresee you having any problem with this tuner. It is the best tuner I have ever used. The "true pass through" and mute features while tuning are excellent also.

It was not very Accurate. Also... my third purchase was a bad unit. Neither the seller nor the maker would respond... not even to the BBB. Be careful. The working two have lost most battery life after a year. Good luck.
