Looks good. You should have asked OAI to retest your Nov 12 sample. It did not have 0 for oxidation.

Nice - it knocked out that 11k with little fanfare. You have some very consistent UOAs.

You have enough data to go for full 1 year intervals at this point, IMO.

+1 easily. Tbn is still good.wear is low and insolubles are fine. Since tbn drops fast at first and then seems to sorta stay put much longer, I suppose 15k is reasonable here.
1 time a year for you makes great since.
