Hi Dale, In your situation I'd use the dehumidifier only on humidity control. It would probably eliminate your floaters. Personally I think 4 cents is "a lot" and 2 cents is "quite heareable", so I guess we feel differently about that. I learned to tune more or less with help at conventions (thanks Dr. Coleman, David Pitsch and Rick Baldassin) as there was really no competant tuner in my area at the time. No one told me 1 cent was a small pitch change so I aimed at 1/10 of a cent. At 09:05 AM 5/11/2005 EDT, you wrote: >If I leave it 5 to 8 cents flat the paino often comes up to A-440.

To me 2 to 4 cents, for practical purposes is about the same as >measuring a nats eyebrow. > Know what I mean? > Dale >Version: 7.0.308 / Virus Database: 266.11.8 - Release Date: 5/10/2005 Regards, Don Rose, B.Mus., A.M.U.S., A.MUS., R.P.T.
