The original tool is flawed with bad data in places, but IMO, far better
than the new Sunny Design tool, that attempts to do too much. I'd
like to see SMA go through all the data in the original String Sizing
Tool and keep it available. <br><br>
Even with the new tool, SMA recommends that we do our own math.

This is an event that was foretold to us during a training session with
SMA early last year. I am surprised it took so long!<br>

I\u2019m soooo bummed out that SMA has removed their handy and easy to use
string sizing tool from their website and replaced it with a cumbersome
monster of a design program. (Yes, at my age I do struggle with
having to learn yet another bloomin\u2019 program.)<br>
<br>
Does anyone know if there\u2019s some magic way to be able to find/use their
old string sizing program somewhere?<br>
<br>
Or has it been banished to the deep, dark dungeon of SMA corporate HQ in
Germany forever?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
