So at that time control those ratings should be close to USCF ratings. I'm not sure if USCF blitz ratings or USCF regular ratings were used in the calculation. Maybe John Merlino can answer that. In either case I also believe you need to play a range of players around your rating and not concentrate on just one personality to get a good feel for strength. Jim
