compression values can change... depending on the equipment used and the tech doing the job... if the tech says that they are low then they are low, but if he says that they seem average then you are fine because all of them are within the magical 5-10 range

it also really depends on the way the test is done and what equipment you are using...

It seems low. But like he said the more important thing is that they are all within 10-15 of each other.

I've seen numbers between 170-280. Mine was in the 220's.
