sympathetic string tuning

[Melvin Dorries]

Greetings,   I was reviewing a HG plan set which has 12 sympathetic strings (not one of ours). This instrument has 4 chanters in c, g, d', and g'. It recommends tuning the sympathetics to:   e ------ 131 hz       G ---------- 98 hz g ------ 196            d ---------- 147 b flat - 233            g ---------- 196 c' ------ 262            a ---------- 220 d' -------294            d' --------- 294 e flat --156            b' --------- 466   Does this seem good to you who have been into this longer than I? How about a Tenor instrument with 8 sympathetics with the same chanter tuning?   Thanks Mel
