Well, I cleaned the octave vent and changed the pad. No significant change in the way it plays. Seems very resistant, most notes seem to pop out pretty well when fingering changes very lightly, but the F still breaks low. When I blow hard enough to keep it up, the F is very sharp when fingered using the side F or standard right hand sliver. Forked F is ok. Except that these reeds are OK on another oboe, I'd say it's the reeds. I'm going to go over the adjustments next.
