Default High altitude compression test?

I did a compression test tonight and consistantly read 145-155 psi on all cylinders. Searching through past posts this seems low. Searching google has revealed that lower readings will occur when the test is performed at a high altitude.

Does anyone know how much affect altitude has on these readings?

Absolute pressure is normally about 77kpa here.
