Hello, Having that, doing this, tuning A440 without a fork <1 cts error or less on good days, 2-3 cts in the evening or bad day. Could hear a piano flat or high with an approx of a few cts, but I can be wrong depending of my general condition. I realize that, with time, the money saved (not to have bought a fork) is not much, considering that these does not fail with time, and particularly considering I tune actually with a VT100 device witch gives me a very accurate pitch measurement. Well it's done, a new post to say nothing. Regards.
