Nay fingering is fairly simple.
for example: On a dukah (D) nay,
starting with all holes closed, proceeding to all open:
C D Eb E1/2b F F# G
then close all the holes and it repeats transposed up a fifth:
G A Bb B1/2b C C# D
you can also get a higher and lower register if you're good, but that's the basic starting point.
so a D nay easily gives you Rast on C, nakriz on C, Bayati on D, Hijaz on D, Saba on D, Sikah on E1/2b (regular sikah, not huzam), nahawand on G.

Thanks a lot everyone!!
thats just what I was looking for.
thanks Brian thats some good info.
I can now play those notes on a Dukah Nay but obviously I find its the transitions that are the most difficult.
Iam doing pretty good concidering I first touched the instrument when I was at Mike's house this week.
Iam classicaly trained on Trombone so it helps a bit for the control of airflow.
I need to get a good Dukah and a Nawa nay.
anyone has any leads?

Hi Samir
Our friend Haluk can supply Turkish ney eg with mouth piece ( baspare). I have one dogah ney which I find ok for second stage breathing but lower
quite difficult. On reflection shorter lenght to begin with would have been easier for both fingering/blowing. I'm used to open hole flutes but still
quite a stretch
