There hardly ever was a tuba in the nominal pitch of F#. But the old A-H high pitch by all reports was very sharp. Another visual result of the pitch reform is the large number of flugelhorns with pigtail loops to be inserted as tuning bits between mouthpiece and receiver.

How does your tuba play? I find it looking very promising and the pulling of the valve slides would be a minor inconvenience. And apparently you have a family member in the tuba section, who could help you out when starting out on tuba.
