Does anyone on the net know of any references in the amateur electronics
or music magazines to tweaking electronic guitar tuners to
change their frequency response especially for non-standard
musical instruments?  I am not a guitar player but I understand that
some of the popular electronic guitar tuners (e.g. Korg) can be "hacked" on 
for tuning instruments that do not use the traditional Western
(chromatic) scale such as the Highland Bagpipes.  I am tuning a practise
chanter now by ear and by comparison to other pipers but an electronic
tuner would be a great convenience and hopefully more objective.
Plus I don't want to spend the money for anyone else's fancy tuner ;)
