Hi Ted,
For all the time it takes, why not do new FAC each time?
You will find, most of the time it will be different, even with
the same model piano. By doing a new FAC, you end up with
a 'custom' tuning for that piano.
I have found,that even with the same piano, depending on the
humidity, I can have a different FAC #.
