Terry,

It is a good question and what the customer is pointing out, in a way,
is that you need to address the pitch change problem first, by
installing the Dampp Chaser system and giving it time to take effect,
and then reschedule for the tuning. This works best if you have some
dehumidifier rods and humidistats in the car.
