Default Are these shift speeds OK for 47RE?

1. From stop to 1st shift is at 16 mph .under normal driving
2. 1st to second shift is 26 mph.
3. 2nd to 3rd shift s at 36 mph.
4. 3rd to OD is at 56 mph .

How far off am I off and how do I fix it...band adjustment?, TV cable?...Tx for your reply

A lot depends on how hard you are stepping on the go-pedal. For normal, 'casual' driving, engine rpm shouldn't be much over 2500 or so at the shift points. TCC should engage shortly after the shift to 3rd, and O/D should come in as you pass 42 mph. What gears you have in your axle, how hard you step on the gas, how well the TV cable is adjusted, and likely phase of the moon.... all play a role in shift points.
