  I tuned the piano, did a little voicing and then addressed the problem of 
 the "clicking" by the judicious use of a 'tiny' bit of felt............
 What was the clicking noise?
 What did I do to stop the clicking?
 Have fun! :-)

My guess is that the damper upstop rail screw was loose. The other theory is 
that the upstop rail was missing some felt. But on a fairly new piano, I 
would have to go with the loose screw.
