Denied
The Board denied a compensable rating for the Veteran's bilateral hearing loss based on the results of audiometric testing.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show an exceptional disability picture or that the available schedular evaluation was inadequate, as the symptoms were fully contemplated by the rating schedule.
