Punkie17 New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 03/15/2024 12:48 pm I've been looking up pictures that say DDOS OR DDRS and now a new one came into the picture as a spread. Too me it looks the same as a DD. Can I get more clarification on it please. I read an article but it talked mainly about the distance between the 2 sets, but even if it's close or apart isn't it still a DD? THANKS. Report this Post to the Staff

Punkie17 New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 03/15/2024 3:05 pm I do not know if they are talking about Machine Doubling. It just talked about separation narrow or wide I'm guessing and made it sound different than a DD. So that confused me because I had not heard the term separation prior. So I guess I'm asking are they 2 different types of errors or varieties? Report this Post to the Staff
