It's a good thing you asked me.  :)

The "G-G" actually refers to letters printed next to the *screw terminals*
used as output connectors on a Hammond B3 preamp chassis. It has nothing to
do with a "G note" of the musical scale. It only refers to the output
connector. It's something that Hammond repair people would be familiar
with, and I forgot to explain it in my first post.

As for mapping frequency numbers to musical notes, frequency #1 is a C
note. Frequency #2 is a C-sharp, etc. You can figure out the rest from
there. You could always print that little chart, and pencil in the musical
note names next to the frequency numbers, if you want.

I'm sorry for not writing things more clearly in my first post.


take care,
Glen
