- If i remember correctly (Peter G3RZP will probably corect me anyway) it was Roly Shears G8KW - who founded KW Electronics -that proposed that S9 be set at 50uV and that each S unit would be 6dB. For

- When first getting on 160 meters I was trying to figure out how to give a report on CW with the S meter reading from S8 to20 over with the crashes. The copy was miserable R3/ R2. So the report is ???

- I believe the S9 = 50 microvolts predates KW Electronics by a long time. In any case, it wasn't unknown for S meters there to be 'calibrated' so that they read in accordance with a subjective assessm
