I think you're referring here to Pete Moss' count system. It not only requires a secondary count but also a TC conversion.
The parameters for this count are a little different than yours:
BC = 0.977/0.977 (S17/H17)
PE = 0.618/0.622 (S17/H17)
IC = 0.872

Again, my numbers differ:
1) Hi-Lo
BC = 0.968/0.972 (S17/H17)
PE = 0.509/0.513 (S17/H17)
IC = 0.789
2) TKO
BC = 0.977/0.977 (S17/H17)
PE = 0.522/0.531 (S17/H17)
IC = 0.813
3) -1 0.5 1 1 1 1 0.5 0 0 -1
BC = 0.984/0.985 (S17/H17)
PE = 0.533/0.540 (S17/H17)
IC = 0.810
4) Just for the record: Cac/7 (which is Hi-Lo with a side count of sevens)
BC = 0.984/0.985 (S17/H17)
PE = 0.509/0.513 (S17/H17)
IC = 0.810
As you can see, the TKO numbers are not the same of a level 2 count. A BC of 0.984 is not nearly close to 0.977.
Sincerely,
Cacarulo
