Hello.
I heard a strange sound that was like an odd ringing. I first I thought something was on the soundboard. I checked with the soundboard steel, I looked around with an endoscope, tighten plate bolts. I finally got my stethoscope out and checked different spots on the piano. I find it's loudest coming from the plate next to the two notes that cause it, F5 and F#5. When I play the note or pluck the string, immediately there is a metallic ring in two parts, one loud then soft. Kind of like "OO-oo". (Imagine a metallic pigeon coo-ing.) The stethoscope picks it up in the cabinet rim also. There is no lock on this piano, but it sounds a lot like that.
It isn't so bad that just having the lid down helps. It's pretty much when the lid is up and I'm tuning.
Thanks for your suggestions.
Robert
