Greetings, 
 
         I have been told to just pull them up and thats it. WWwheLLL!....., 
that seems to me, like a cheap rip off tuning, and doing that doesnt settle 
the pin correctly. The tuning should last the customer.
Is that it?
Is that where I am going wrong on this whole ordeal? Am I trying to settle 
pins that are not meant to be settled? I am talking about grands here as well as 
the K'$.

Ron,
Haven't tried the Protex, but Kent Webb from Steinway said the same 
thing in Atlanta.  Also suggested that it's more productive to just 
bring up to pitch and settle in, rather than bringing the note over pitch.
