The tuning I got from here
http://www.angelfire.com/music/harmonica/hohnertuningsbyepping.html

And the tuner I have is a Korg DT-2 that I've had for about 16 years. I 
don't think they make them anymore and I'm sure there are other chromatic 
tuners that have a better graphic representation/division of cents.
