MessageHI James,
You mentioned temprature.  I often take the cit y bus system, and =
yesterday when I went to tune the preactice piano, my fork was cold from =
being in my breif case.  No I didn't get a tool box. I'm going to LOWES =
to pick up a good 24$ one with numerous compartments, looks like a metal =
breif case.  I like the idea that the pitch source is constant.  Turn it =
on and tune until it is matched.  The fork has to be struck over again.  =

  You might also consider the Sanderson Accu-Fork.  The good thing with =
a digital pitch source is that it is always accurate.  I usually say =
that the tuning fork is always there but not necessarily accurate due to =
temperature, whereas the digital source is always accurate but if =
something happens, it is not there at all.

    Hi Marshall,

    The TuneLab program on a Pocket PC can give you a whole tuning. The =
one thing that RicB might have forgotten is that you are visually =
impaired. I don't know about your exact situation, but the pocket PC =
might not work for you (depending). If you really want to hone your =
skills, just stick with the tuning fork for now. You will never regret =
it. Just practice.

      Hi Ric,
      How does that compare to the Sanderson electronic A?
