You have to subtract 4 from the listed DYS439 values. I wrote to B.
Bonné-Tamir and enquired about DYS439 and he agreed that 4 would need to
be subtracted to bring his DYS439 values in line to those to those used
by FTDNA, SMGF, and others ... I had to do some research work on DYS439
motif's first though and present that evidence to him ...
