I was hoping that the strobe would be more sensitive. 
I used one of those standard issue white pedal style
tuners hooked up to a microphone, and it worked OK,
but the signal is so faint coming out of the autoharp
that the tuner starts to jump around before I can get
an accurate read.  

But then, it doesn't sound too bad tuned the way it
is, so maybe I should leave well enough alone.
