      Hi Jens,
      I can't find your posting re the scale of
      the harmonic amplitudes in the K5K.
      Think it was logarithmic and I have to
      multiply the calculated coefficients for
      the fourier series by some log factor. ??

      Okay, here it is once more:
      The scale of the harmonic amplitudes is 0.75 dB per step. This means, as formula:
      amplitude = max_amplitude * 2^((level_value-127)/8) 
      Or:
      level_value = 127 + 8 * log2(amplitude/max_amplitude) 
      Missing the base-2 logarithm on your pocket calculator? - use this:
      log2(...) = ln(...) / ln(2)
