 Greetings all,

      I find it disappointing when there is no new technically minded
information here,  that is the reason I come to this part of the cyber world.

     I propose that all posts have some technical reason for being on the
list,  otherwise,  we will watch the list's worth become diluted by totally
off topic conversation.  I have seen this sad state of entrophy arise on
other lists and newsgroups.   Anything technical;  just as long as it
pertains to pianos.
     Like yesterday,   I was finally driven to distraction by the notchy
agraffes on an older Steinway, nothing seemed to help,  until I decided to
put Pro-tek on the understring felt behind the agraffes.  Instant
smoothness!!  The "notch" was caused not by the agraffe, but by the
corrosion,(I suppose) on the felt.  It took six drops per trichord, but the
piano had never tuned so easily before.
Regards,
Ed Foote
