Interpreting Choke Numbers on Sonris?

I wonder if someone well versed on Sonris can comment on how to interpret the choke numbers on the new Sonris system. I notice that they are expressed as a whole number. It mght say 12 or 15 or 78 for that matter. Is there a guide for what that translates into as a fractional number like 12/64, 15/64, 23/64, etc?

 

Thanks

Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of)  nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…
