Hi Allen

While I am not familier with the PT100 you ask about, I did want to say that
when I was first learning to tune and wanted to know how long it would
take to learn I was told by one of the wise old sages in our chapter that
"You tune 1000 pianos and then you will know how to tune 1".  Depending
on the time you have that may take 2 to 4 years.

I don't know if the 1000 number is different for tuning electronicaly.  I
think it is most likely the same.  If you have only been tuning for 3 mo.
you still have a long way to go and should not get discouraged too much
yet.

Are you tuning your own piano now?

Later,
-Phil
