She wondered about the advisability of putting the coils directly under where the piano will be placed.  I'm thinking it may be better to avoid it, but I should defer to the greater expertise of this list. <BR><BR>For some reason, although this question has been bugging them for some time, they only now decided to call me to ask... now that the workers are there putting the tiles in the floor... so time is of the essence.  <BR><BR>If I don't get a definitive response from the many wiser persons here, I think I would advise them to avoid an area for about a one-foot perimeter around the piano.<BR><BR>TIA,<BR>Paul<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
