My paternal line all with Gaelic variants of the same name is well documented back to the 1600s due to a few well known ancestors, so I suspect the community learned more from me than I did from the test. I know they were refining the timing of SNPs comparing me to a distant Cousin. Never the less as a scientist myself, who could afford it, I do not regret doing Family Tree’s “Big-Y”!

The chart being shown from the 7-8 minute mark aligns with my own experience and provides further evidence to me that FTDNA is more of a money extraction scheme than anything else for most folks. Note how you pay for a cheap 23andme test and you get a more specific (younger) subgroup in your result (along with all of your autosomal results BTW). In other words you are paying more for FTDNA just to have them perform a test Y37 (no autosomal) which yields a more general (older more distant) result - a haplogroup which is a parent of the 23andme result. In my case 23andme provided E-U290 (metal ages) and FTDNA-Y37 provided E-M2 (stone ages) which is nothing more than a more general group containing many younger groups which include E-U290. Lame. Of course then FTDNA wants even more money to for them to provide a test result which MAY or MAY NOT be as specific as the test result one received from the original cheap 23andme result. SMDH

I’m waiting for my Y37 test. My research/family lore suggests that my 3X great grandfather with same surname was born in Ireland and came to US in early 1800’s. One of his brothers migrated in 1830 and his descendants have done extensive genealogical work and DNA testing. They have a family surname project in FTDNA, which I joined. If the person I think is my ancestor is, what would I see in matches with his brother’s male descendants?

curious about multiple numbers on STR separated by dashes. Example on DSY464 the number of repeats below list 12-15-16-16.

Some markers have multiple copies and values (alleles).

Y testing: lots of profit for the providers, expensive proposition for customers with low probability of success

As a (fellow?) Black male I agree with you. However, I took the Big-Y test last April during FamilyTree's "DNA Day" sale. As she described, Y tests are great at proving that you are not related to another male test-taker on your patrilineal lines; the Y-37 test showed that my line is African while my presumed 3nd cousin's is European.
