Does anyone know the email address for an organ technician forum? I would very much appreciate it if someone could forward it to me, as you will see.... A local organ repairman and friend of mine has been forced to give up work altogether for health reasons. He is 76, and has a worsening case of dementia. I am attempting to assist his wife in selling off his equipment. Needless to say, it's a sad situation. Among a VERY large accumulation of organ parts is a quite new (app. 5 years old, but used very little) Peterson Model 520 tuner. It was featured in the Schaff Tool Catalog in 1996. Technician price then was $599. It has a feature that allows for an audible tone to be emitted at each pitch across a five octave range, and headphones can even be used to listen to the beats between the internal tone and the external tone from the instrument. Naturally, it also includes the large visual readout, as well, over a full 8 octave range. The asking price for this is $350, and is negotiable. If anyone is interested please contact me privately. Thanks Mark Potter bases-loaded@juno.com
