Jim Coleman uses a method of taking two FAC measurements instead of the
F4 method:

1. Measure FAC in normal manner, calculate and put in a page of memory.

2. Measure FAC, using the first plain wire as the F data, calculate and
put in a page of memory.

Now, tuning #1 is used for the wound strings. Tuning #2 is used for
plain strings.  The result is a better tuning.  I just use the F4
method.
