I only ping near the end to show true outliers. As I've said, I rely on good shop practice to prevent uneven tension, rather than trying to manage it downstream.
Looking at your chart, you should be able to hear the ones most off in either direction. If I had the wheel, I
might have some sense based on nipple feel, but certainly not by remote control.
Since you made the chart, start with the worst loose and tight spokes, and correct them against their neighbors. Focus in getting more even tension within local areas, and the big picture will come together for you.
