Thanks syzygy, nice puzzle as usuall if not the most difficult of their offerings. As you'll no doubt have noticed I've not had a lot of time lately to puzzle but all your previous postings are in my backlog pile, cheers.

Thanks, Syzygy, enjoyed.
I can't see the parsing for the 'I' clue

Dee nabbed by superior locator

It looks like STARTER to go in the grid, with the E changing from another letter. Perhaps superior=star...

I had Finder, locator - Finer +D/Dee. I changed the I to an E. My Starter came from 'More intelligent...'. I didn't get round to finishing this, so these could be wrong.

Ahh! Thanks, Malone, that works.

Thanks, syzzie. That was a pleasure.

All welcome. Right on, Malone.

Rather a quick solve though a few of the Untested were a bit of holdup when they crossed. The meta, new letters in the blanks, certainly helped with that. Not bad.

Let's keep our fingers crossed for an earlier Harper's.
