How hard could it be to just make a guess? Set up a trackball, and start dialing in some rates. After all, whoever made these would have experimented for an optimal rate.

Note: When I say 'how hard' I don't mean for me. I can barely manage to install an OS  ;D

I always used a pencil too,. but I seemed to break them often. In the end, it always came down to slamming the CP as hard fast as you could. You could always hear when someone was playing T&F from the smacking on the CP.

I used a Bic pen - much better!
