Thank you list I see everything much clearer now.
What I need to do is to double my speed. And Iīm there.
My problem might be that I like to sit and do all kinds of tests on my temprements
to get it perfect. That gives  me  a feeling Iīm getting it better all the time,
but  I suppose I will get to that point faster after a while.

Thanks Rickard. Please let me use your response to clear my question.

> Ola, I know your situation pretty well.

I donīt know you but we live in the same town and in that sense you might
understand my stuation and why I take this question to the list. I might been
unlucky with the tuned pianos who crossed my path here or it could be a problem of
this area but......I didnīt think the pianos  at my work had been tuned for years
but I was wrong, they have been tuned every year. only without me noticing the
difference.

When the list answers me that a piano is tuned good in a 1 - 2 hours time, then
something is wrong when a tuned piano is out of tune. Two things can be wrong 1,
somebody is not giving the piano enough attention or 2, somebody is not tuning
good enough, even if heīs trained. The problem is not the condition of the piano.
Iīve also heard perfect tuned pianos here (but not at my music school).
