OK it's not the keys. Check loose nut on key upstop rail anyhow.

The other day, I did a 65 cent pitch raise on a W........ console.  Will
return in two weeks to retune.  In tuning, I noticed a slapping sound in the
action when I did test blows, actually any blow in the forte (f) range.  The
dip was a little excessive, but the sound definitely was coming from the
action area, not from the keys.  I checked with dampers off strings, also
didn't see slapping jacks, and the action brackets were low and tight.  The
sound was somewhere between a paper and a wood sound.  Any ideas?

Thanks,   Gary
