Mickey, with spinets, try this:

-Tune single octave
-Listen to double octave - adjust accordingly..I like it rather quiet with
spinets.
-Listen to 5th and 4th below the tuned note.

If the double octave and the 4th and 5th all seem rather quiet, move on.

Use the Visual Aid to help you hear...trust me.

I strip mute using conventional temperament strips, taking great care not to
damage any dampers after the break. I never got the hang of Papps mutes.
