Richard, Art says we're bozos. Did you know that? I didn't. When did this come
about? I don't believe I was born that way. Yeah, and when was it we decided to
gang up on Jim? And what kind of a stabbing device did we plan to use on him? I
can't remember.

And please, Art, did you have to put us in the same class as that kb9? I don't
think Jim is the fool here.

Walter both you and Richard take a delight in hurting people as your
histories shows.
I suppose you can call anybody who opposes you in a discussion
personal insults,
names or anything else to achieve your aim to harm those who do not
provide an
alliance with you and what you say. Both of you have done it many
times before
and will probably do it again to unsuspecting posters. I just want to
ensure that
newcomers recognise both of you for what manner of men ( should I use
that term?)
you actually are. Forewarned means fore armed and that goes for your
crappy book also
that you hawk for money with hams on the pretence you are supplying
scientific hams
and not the unsuspoecting :"
ordinary "hams.
And YES I put you in the same class as KB9......
since your intention of destruction to this newsgroup is the same as
his
as you have just shown by this ugly attack with intent to hurt.
You and Richard deserve his companionship as you are like people in
what you do

Art is overheated.

0.1 dB could be a power gain of 1.02 or 0.977.

If the power were 100, and the power read 102 or 98 that would be about
0.1 dB (from Terman`s Handbook).

My Bird Model 43 has a specified accuracy of +5% or -5% of the
full-scale meter reading. It is a reasonably accurate meter for field
use. If the scale was 100 and it should be reading 50, it could read 55
or 45 and be within specification.

My usual hope when making commercial measurements was within 1.0 dB.
