Re: [APML] Calibrating STV axes independently

["Steve..." <swalters@worldnet.att.net>]

Jim,

This does sound like the problem I've experienced. I'll give it a try first
chance I have.

But what, praytell, is "-V"? Is it a pseudonym for "ST-V"?  ie. it fails the
first calibration after powering the ST-V on?

Thanks a bundle for checking this out for us!

Steve...
