There has been an academic study done looking at the maternal lineages of Macronesia(Azores,Madeira,Canary Islands and Cape Verde) I believe the average for the Azores for Mtdna with origins in Sub-Sahara Africa was 3.4%, paternal lineages with origins in Sub-Sahara Africa in the Azores are extremely rare I believe only one example has been found, using that as a guideline you would expect an average of 1.7% of the Azorean genome to have origins in Sub-Saharn Africa. I don't believe that result is far off. It is corroborated by myorigins results that are coming in, many people are not showing 1% or higher which is my case but when I use the Gedmatch calculators it definetely is present especially when I look at my 22 Chromosomes in detail.
