This post is a little off the track but here goes anyway. A six valve F tuba (with a flat whole-step and flat half-step setup) gives you the best of both worlds. You have the normal flat whole-step fifth valve but when you use both fifth and sixth, you effectively get the longer two-step setup. Things you can work out when you're trying to get to sleep......
