Back in the early 1980s my cousin, John Allen, penned an article (in Bike World) about using pluck tones to both true and gage spoke tensions in a wheel. It had too much math for me to follow, even though I understood the principle. IIRC he offered a rough chart for spoke gages and pluck tones and their aprox tensions for the typical road bike spoke lengths common then. Andy
