- 0 DBM is defined as 1 milliwatt. At 50 ohms, that's 0.22 volts for 0 dbm. S9 is -73 dbm so 0 dbm is S9+73. -10 dbm is .1 milliwatt. -20 dbm is .01 milliwatt -30 dbm is .001 milliwatt -40 dbm is .0001

- The Omni VII does not have low gain. But it seems yours has a defective LINE INPUT. I can run mine at 25% and raising the level up on the computer I get 100 watts of data output, well into ALC range.
