Temperature and the Tuning Fork

[Ed Sutton]

See p. 18 of the same issue (July).
A good fork (such as the Walker forks) will have a specified calibration temperature.
Some technicians prefer to calibrate the fork to a pocket temperature.
See www.tunelab-world.com for calibration instructions.

  Hi,

  On p. 9 of this issues journal, can you explain the temperature/tuning fork relationship?  What is the purpose of being able to keep track of it's temperature?  Also, what is the best way to store a tuning fork, and how do you get it calibrated?


  Many thanks,
  Matthew
