Keith,

<<It has been mentioned numerous times in the past that tightening plates
bolts/screws can aid in stability of tuning, so insuring such a thing is
done could only be a plus in your situation.>>

That is what I was thinking, but Ron N has got me thinking all about it. :-)

<<Should there still be dramatic changes in pitch after doing the above,
mounting support boards (preferably hardwood 1" x 3") across the back of
the piano perpendicular to the backposts (minimum of 3, two above the
handles evenly spaced, one below the handles evenly spaced) is an option.>>

What kind of improvements did you get with the piano?
