but that top treble should be as clear as a bell.

Examining the instrument the bridge has sunk and the sounboard is depressed in the tricord area, probably on acount of the 1/3 higher downwards force.

Is there any way perhaps with loosening tension and applying steam and force from underneath that perhaps one might be able to restore the shape of the crown?

I'm guessing that without a proper crown giving a resisting force, vibration of the string moves the soundboard in a manner that changes the string tension depending on whether the string is up or if it is down, so therefore providing two tensions to the string and therefore two resulting notes.

In PTG posts in living memory issues of string twisting when stringing have been explored, and the strings are well mating with the bridge and bridge pins.

For anyone interested in the recording quoted above by the way, Kirnberger III temperament is in use here.
