Richard, I can agree with that
Wes obviously paid close attention to Reggies initial post
and replied in a way that was very informativeI and reflected
his knoweledge in that particular field
Nobody else came even close
to identifying Reggies needs and responded
in such a professional manner.

He should be congratulated
Regards
Art

But for the two figures to be of value the uncertainties in the
determination should be stated on the certificate (a legal document).

What are TYPICAL uncertainties, in dB, which appear above the Head of
the Laboratory's signature.

Hi Reg,

I thought Wes' link was quite specific to the matter:
Measurement Mismatch Correction Error 0.04
Noise Power of Power Sensor 0.00
Zero error of Power Sensor 0.00
Power Meter Linearity 0.04
Space Loss Measurement Error 0.01
Multipath Curve Fitting Random Error 0.04
Proximity Effect Correction Error 0.05
All expressed in dB and may be combined using the usual methods of
RMS, RSS, or worst case simple sum.
