color=#0000ff size=2>My record for a pitch raise is 12-minutes=
for about a 40-cent PR. I usually take about 15 minutes=
and it leaves the piano sufficiently close that the tuning just=
takes another 45 - 50 minutes. Because of TuneLab's=
spectrum display you can do the PR without mutes. That=
saves a LOT of time.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
