It takes about 30 seconds for everything to stabilize for an accurate reading. If you can get a steady 13.5-14.5 AF ratio at cruise, you are there. 14.7:1 is the magic number, and is the ideal stochiometric air/fule ratio all cars are calibrated to run at these days.

Hummm.... interesting... If I could get my cruise reading up to around 14.5 - 15.0 I would be a lot happier. But as of now, with the 63's, I'm right around 13.0:1.
