However, when I ran rigs with NO s-meter, my ear served well enough ... Indeed, the 1-9 Signal Strength system was in operation before S-meters were in standard use, dating back to the very early 20th century. The "x dB over S9" came later. Even when I got my first ham license in the early 50's, the RF gain control used for CW rendered the S-meter reading invalid. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com "According to the general theory of relativity, space without ether is unthinkable."
