Beats me unless it's something to do with how the AGC responds to random 
noise. Wonder if the actual noise coming out of the speaker of each radio is 
relative to the S meter reading? I've got a sound pressure meter that 
reveals some interesting things.
Using the HP, set each rigs volume to produce the same volume with a steady 
tone then hook up the antenna to each one and see if the ones with the 
higher S meter readings are louder. Just something fun to try!
