I go for the whole tone setup. Just as you have with your Yamaha, I have the convertable 5th valve setup on my CB-50. This (as you probably know) allows the valve to be setup for 1/2, whole, or two step combo. I don't think the convertable 5th valve would be a real difficult modification, and I often wonder why most tuba makers don't setup their horn with convertable 5th from the factory, allowing the buyer to set it up to his or her liking.
