Re FAC    If F3 is a wound string you will get a large number and a poor
tuning.  Recall Jim Coleman's info some time ago.  Use the inharmonicity
reading of the first plain wire for the F3 reading. If the bass doesn't come
out sounding good, just go down the bass aurally, or tune it to a partial
above.

I use a SAT II and tune a Yamaha C 9ft quite frequencty.  I use the same
page number every time and it sounds just fine. Of course this piano is in
the same environment all the time, so it doesn'g move much.
