Im using the C Dia tuning that i found here and ive made a few changes that are useful.I put the hi E to D drop on pedal 2 and the B flat on p3.I have a fourth ped that i use to raise the hi E to an F and drop the low G to an F.I have a vert k.l. that i drop the low C to a B.Also does anyone have any idea to fine tune the changes.Ive been tuning everthing to 440 but it just isnt quite on.Thanks Larry.

My page on the F Diatonic describes a circle-of-fifths meantone method that should work fine for your C Diatonic. Just use D as your center point instead of G.

The chart shows a 3 cent difference for each interval. I've since changed to 2.5 cents because its a bit closer to equal, and because it's easier to read on the meter.
