Tuning Steinway Verticals

[Don McKechnie]

This reminded me of the dark ages for the PTG tuning test. When someone
wanted to take their test in the Reading Lancaster Chapter they had to
tune the Steinway upright a Willis Snyder's house. I believe it was a
1098 but I may be wrong. Now, was that torture or what!
