Then I would give it a tuning. I would also explain = to the owner that the tuning will not be as stable as a tuning on a = typical piano that had been tuned on a regular basis. However, after a = couple regular tunings, their piano should achieve relative stability.

My operation on anything more than -25c is 1st trip raise pitch re-tune in 2 weeks, then 3 months. I put this proposal to them before = I start and if they agree I do. If they do not piano stays where it is.

Yes, except that if it's extremely flat and one doesn't do a normal = pitch raise=20 type tuning (pulling it appropriately sharp), you can't do a "fine = tune" the=20 second time. Actually, you can't do that at all on the first = appointment, IMO! But yes, a third time might be necessary just to make it = "reasonably" stable=20 until the next appointment about 3 months or so later! Less, if = possible!=20 Avery=20 At 07:23 PM 11/11/04, you wrote: Hi Terry, "All at once" meaning from however flat it is up to pitch = followed by a fine tune and then maybe a 3rd pass just to touch up.. all = the same appointment.
