Your message was caught in the group's spam filter. Your table came out pretty badly wrapped in my e-mail client. Can you put it on the web somewhere or try posting again with different formatting?

Yes, that's what I meant. I think I got it wrong; c is "low C" and c' is "middle C", but I think I wrote c for "middle C" and c' for "tenor C". >But i do perfer to tune my own piano in the absolute-pitches in 5ths: >[snip] > because, that's much easier to check > and sounds better in my ears. > > bye > A.S.
