SAT use

[Farrell]

This is the classic ETD/Aural arguement. Any SAT user knows its limitations well. A large well scaled piano would likely get a nice tuning by the deaf/SAT tuner. A smaller and/or more poorly scaled piano would not likely get a great tuning - especially at the break. There have been volumes written on aural tweaking of ETD tunings.

Now you have piqued my curiosity: your client wrote out a check after completing a 40-cent pitch raise? Does this imply that you did not tune the piano? If so, why?
