Hi Ken,

There is a linguistic issue here. As I understand it, the original Japanese
text reads "Better than -60 dB". The reference (full rated output) is
implied. For English-speaking "gaijin" audiences, "< -60 dBc, where 0 dBc =
rated output" might be clearer. (I can just hear the peanut gallery
clamouring "What the Sam Hail is 'dBc'?")

The "More than 60 dB" is a loose translation of "More than 60 dB below rated
output".

As we Scots say, "Och laddie, I wuidnae git ma wee trews in such a twust!"

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ
