<div>Hallo. I 'm piano technician from Uzbekistan work at College of&n=
bsp;Music, Mahidol University, Thailand. In my country has and had a lot of=
the pianos "Petrof", "Weinbach", "Schoelze&q=
uot;, "Roesler". At my home the Upright "Roesler" =
"Rigoletto" has been out of tune in anytime of October, when=
is usually cold room air before heating turn on. After one-two w=
eeks heating to start, the piano in tune again. I suspect, it is happend&nb=
sp;by responcing the soundboard and string contracting. Probably,=
you have the same case.
