SAT Settings/Measuring Tunings

[Avery Todd]

Ed/list,

   This brings up something I've wondered. To score a tuning, the tuning
exam uses:

octave 1 - read on octave 3
   "   2 -  "    "    "   4
   "   3 -  "    "    "   5
   "   4 -  "    "    "   5
   "   5 -  "    "    "   5
   "   6 -  "    "    "   6
   "   7 -  "    "    "   7

   Are these "read on" octave settings the best to record an aural tuning
for later duplication? And what would be best to use to measure A0, A#0
and BO? Just curious. Thanks.

Avery
