Yes, that is true, my mistake.

Any success on leads to existing data?
I would be surprised to see multiple master tunings done on the same piano close together.
The head of the exam committee could point you in the right direction. All the masters are 
Reviewed and kept on file somewhere. If a store was in the habit of lending it's piano out for testing, perhaps, but that is likely local and run through the same CTE, that would not want to 
Reproduce the master more often then necessary.
