Peterson Strobetuner

[Andrew and Rebeca Anderson]

I used one when I started tuning pianos.  I had to compensate for 
stretch as I went checking intervals.  The Peterson doesn't listen to 
the piano and calculate stretch based on what is there.  It simply 
has some stretch templates in memory you can access.  If you depend 
on a Peterson you will not have a tuning that fits that piano.  It 
can help keep you organized a bit but you will need aural skills if 
you are using a Peterson.  Got a mint 490ST for sale if anyone wants one...
