Just a quick note to let everyone know that the conversion charts to interpret the Loos Gauge readings between the 90 Model B and the PT-2 with equivalent tension in pounds are now posted on the web site with the tuning guides. The chart is readable online, or can be downloaded as an Excel spreadsheet for printing. The numbers come from the Loos website.

The table is organized to show readings being approximately equal listed on the same row. You'll need to interpolate for exact conversion, but it's close enough for dialing in the settings you want.

Go to the J/30 website main menu at the top and mouse over Info, Articles of Interest, then click on J/30 Rig Tuning. It is listed at the bottom of the table labeled "Jump to Sections to read online or download:"

Here is the direct link, but we put the menu structure in place so you can find stuff in the future.
