Lynne,
Thanks for the more accurate info. Sorry I bum-doped
folks by saying D was 326. I was trying to calculate
from the G = 98 and the chimes to the D string, and
got the wrong ratio. I was in a hurry, and should have
realized that three times the G3 196 value is twice
the D4 value, rather than D4 being 5/3 of G3.
My bad.
