Kevin,
If the bass is about 30 cents flat I want to raise the note about three =
cents sharp ( about 10% ) of pitch. So with a SATlll that raises the =
pitch 25%  that would result in too much over pull for me so I will set =
the over pull for 12 cents and roll the program into the machine.
I take only one measurement at A2 to arrive at my over pull. Works very =
well for me.
I use the 25% in the tenor and about C4 the 30% to the top then retune.
On pianos 25% or less flat or sharp I use the Verituner 100 and its 10% =
bass, 30% tenor,
and 36% treble and retune.

      Here's another little brain saver:  What if you're pitch raising a =
piano and want to do a 20% overpull in the bass, and it's, say, 28 =
cent's flat. (let's see, one fifth of twenty eight would be ......... =
ah........ ah........) =20

      Take 28, and double it for 56. Move the decimal point over to the =
left one place.=20

       5.6 is 1/20th of 28.=20

      At least, that's how I do it.=20
