> Yesterday I had occasion to tune a Yamaha U1 upright for a lady that just
moved into my area from a town upstate (Fairmont WV). She said that her
tuner in Fairmont, a former coal miner, said that it was imperative that her
piano be "de-tuned" before being moved to protect the soundboard, plate,
etc. from damage due to the strain and jostling brought on by the move.

just enough tension to hold the coils in place!!
