Ii is nice to see someone else who had / has a 190.  They are pretty rare.  What year was yours made?  Is it a BBb or CC?  I hever had many intonation problems on mine (BBb), as a matter of fact it was one of the most in tune tubas I played.  I would use a C4 for bright playing and a helleberg style for orchestra / band stuff.  I even used a very drilled out Bach 18 for a deeper sound with less overtone.  I don't like the C3 on it, but that may be just me.
