1  608  =  5-1-20 and not the  5-1-5 given on the website
2  627  =  5-2-11 and not the  5-2-14 given on the website
3  712  =  6-1-12 and not the  6-1-3 given on the website
4  722  =  6-2-22 and not the  6-1-6 given on the website
5  851  =  7-2-11 and not the  7-2-14 given on the website
6  1071 =  9-2-7  and not the  9-2-5 given on the website
7  1450 = 12-3-22 and not the 12-3-4 given on the website
8  1733 = 15-1-25 and not the 15-1-7 given on the website
9  2320 = 20-2-24 and not the 20-2-5 given on the website
10 3588 = 32-0-4 BINGO - just about the only conversion out of 20 
that is correct!

This is the problem - I was hoping to enter the data into the Dove 
proto-NBR but do not feel confident in doing so.  Why should I 
accept the lbs figures as correct given that the website seems so 
wrong, please?
