I have been using the SAT (with FAC) for a couple of years now and I find it really does a great job on most of the piano I have met, although I have to touch up the tenor bridge section quite often. However, I did not succeed yet to get a real smooth tuning on spinets using the FAC. I tried storing the the stretch measurements of both plain and wound wires on two separate pages and then switching pages at the break point (plain/wound) while tuning. Either I was not getting a good progressive temperament or clean octaves or both. I Jim Coleman teaches a way of changing the stretch numbers but I could never figure out how to do it. Has anyone had good success with the wild spinets using FAC. Michel Lachance, RPT
