David,

I may be wrong but I "believe" there are some notes on the detuning for the PTG
exam that are at least that. I've always had a problem with that for stability
purposes.

An article in the Journal (I believe) said that anything over 2 cents 
needed to
have a pitch correction thing added to it. Well, if that's so, why is the 
piano
detuning so extreme (IMHO)?
