Subject: 5th position and gapping

Ok, I'm a little new to the whole posting thing, so bear with me . . . .

I'm just wondering if anyone out there can recommend any good 5th position
playing--I have yet to identify a tune with harp in 5th position, and I'd be
interested in seeing how other guys use it (compared to myself).

Just one other question: can I get some info on "gapping"? I understand that
it's a reed adjustment and has to do with the response level of the reed,
but
what exactly is the procedure? Is it overly time consuming? Is it worth it?

I apologize for the rookie questions! : )
