Hi List, I don't want to give the wrong impression here. I really think I did it wrong. I wish I had learned aurally first. I have been extremely lucky, that things have worked out well for me. I don't know if I was too hyped up, when I tried the aural part. I actually did worse, on my second try. I think clean unisons give a better impression to the customer, than the actual temperament, being off slightly. John M.

Maybe from the standpoint of being a good aural tuner you "did it wrong". But if you have been tuning for 27 years, have a university contract, have had no complaints, and have made a good living at it, hmmmmmm - I'd say you did something right! | | Terry Farrell | | ----- Original Message ----- | From: "John Ross" <jrpiano@win.eastlink.ca> | To: <ilvey@sbcglobal.net>; "Pianotech" <pianotech@ptg.org> | Sent: Sunday, September 22, 2002 2:49 PM | Subject: Re: Testing Statistics.. was Important Question | | | > Hi David, | > I agree with you 100%. | > I am one who did it the wrong way.
