<<Don't Trust the Results That You Get from the Enhanced System
Tester. I ask support to get Debry.com Msst and compare the result
of the two. If you can get anywhere close to the same results using
the settings that support suggested below please let me know.>>
There was an earlier post on this topic. If you go the ReadMe Files (available when you click on Equis International) you will find that 8.01 corrected numerous errors in the System Tester. It was the OLD System Tester that had errors and from what they corrected you should not expect to get the same results, and you don't want to get the same erroneous results.
