Since we measure signal strength in volts and power in watts and since watts vary with the square of the voltage, are your 6dB per S-unit dB of voltage difference or of power difference? In other words, if I double my power am I quadrupling my volts? Inquiring minds want to know. Mike N4NT ____________________________ It's even better than that. One S unit is 6db so 25 watts is one S unit less than 100 watts. So an S9 signal at 100 watts is just a frog's hair under S8 at 20 watts.
