Terry, This brings to mind a Mendelssohn console I tuned in July 1997. Two months later I was called again; the piano was out of tune. I went to check and although my notes are incomplete I think the piano was sharp in the tenor. The air conditioning was now off since we had a cool August and September that year, and of course that caused the humidity to shoot up. My second call was certainly worth the full charge but suspecting the budget was tight for them I charged half. But yeah, sounds like your piano really does have other problems as well!

The new church has three major AC units. Only one was going today, and it was nice an cool in there (90 outside). I did not have a hygrometer to measure in the old and new church, but I'm guessing that the old church is very high humidity, and the new church is very low humidity. That may be the primary cause of the plain wire sections of the piano to drop 20 cents.
