Bill, I am not an RPT (yet, I lack my Technical due to scheduling conflicts), HOWEVER, a good book to read is Different Strokes. You can purchase it from Randy Potter in Oregon. In it, the author describes over 21 different hammer techniques that are very useful. One technique that has helped me in situations similar to this, is to "tune from the bottom;" meaning that instead of raising the pitch over your desired pitch, then lowering it to settle friction points, etc., you tune up to the pitch that you want and leave it. Hope this helps in this particular situation, but get a hold of that book if you can.
