Hi,
 
Since the whole concept of RST is pretty theoretical, what's the different how 
an S-meter performs?  I've been a ham for 35 or 40 years and my 579 to station 
is not some other ham's 579 to a station.
 
I have a Kenwood TS570 with a bar illustration for an S-meter.  I'm not sure 
what it means.  I also have run a Yaesu FT-897D.  I had no idea what's going on 
with that digital bar which goes back and forth, back and forth.
 
My best rig is an OMNI VI Plus.  I like watching that meter go up and down.  
It's a very smooth S-meter but I don't really care if it's several hairs 
generous or stingy.
 
It's all relative.  If you can hear them, you can work them.
 
73s,
