Ouch! Clinton, I DO play in tune, just don't like the "romance" of taking two hours to tune, hence electronic tuner. Currently using the clip on Intellitouch, it works off of vibration, so you can tune in a crowd easily. Not terribly expensive, and gets the top and bottom notes on dulcimer. Not all of them do. Anyone else out there playing one of these deluxe cheese slicers, check out the tuner on your instrument before buying. I have two others that don't encompass the entire instrument.
