Hi, Lief-

To re-calculate yourself you can use Tremaine Parsons' [sss@23s.com]
program - PScale. I believe it's only on the DOS-Windows platform. It is
only for calculations using modern wire formulation.

Otherwise, there is a book of scalings which I can't put my hands on at
the minute or even remember the exact title [someone will!]. Also
Malcolm Rose has a book on scaling that is concerned with antique
instruments-
A Handbook of Historical Stringing Practice for Keyboard Instruments -
by Malcolm Rose and David Law
[tel & fax - [0] 1278 481010].

Good luck and best wishes-

Rob Loomis, RPT
