SAT & RCT-Virgil

[David ilvedson]

In my opinion there is nothing more annoying than coming to do a 
concert tuning on a piano that was tuned in HT for the one  
HT concert of the decade and having to spend the extra time 
getting it in tune...thats right to Equal Temperment where it 
shoud be.  It would be so nice if the HT tuner would recommend 
retuning after the concert for what most pianists want to hear 
ET...In my opinion I have heard enough of this zealot for 
HT...constantly expounding on the wonders of out of tuneness.  
In other words it sounds so beautiful in some of the keys and 
the rest sound like crap!  Bill, give me a break already...
