It's a subjective report by the sender since we are also receiving noise and
are not accounting for the bandwidth processing the signal. Some of my rigs
don't have S meters.
Please remember S units it has a range of from:
1 - Faint signals, barely perceptible.
to
9 - Extremely strong signals
I do not report signals 9 plus and that bothers some Hams.
