Buried in his lengthy explanation was the answer: about 17 cents. That seems
a little more than I recall from my days of using a JI chart for my puddle
stale, ISTR about 12 cents, and the C# of P1 hit 17 (the A of P2 hit about 5
cents flat, and then you flatten the third 12 cents flat from a 5 cent flat
baseline). I gave up on the JI when I realised you'd have to have a jillion of
those microchanges (tuning compensators), like to flatten the G# when you hit
the
A pedal and F lever. Bah. Not to mention you then become the only one on
the stage whose chords ring true; everyone else plays a tempered tuning.
