Could the modern ham community please stop pretending that 1 S-unit = 6 db?
It may have been true decades ago, but it is far from true in the large
majority of modem ham transceivers.
When I installed my hexbeam, I saw about 1 - 2 S-units improvement on my
TS-590S. This antenna is well-known to deliver about 3-4 db.
Let's talk db, a unit that is clearly defined and when which everyone agrees on
the definition. S-units are just for a casual meter check during QSOs.
