I've seen organs swing from 10 c sharp to 20 c flat in a week and trying to get a piano to follow is just madness. Dont blame the organ tuner, he has to work at a certain temperature and unless you can maintain the climate youre lost. I have one church that likes piano/organ duets and they keep the a/c on all week when preparing and hang the expense. Without that its a waste of time. -- Dave ----------------------------- Dave Doremus RPT New Orleans algiers_piano@bellsouth.net ------------------------------
