Hey all,

I'm still skeptical about this formula:

Field Strength (uV/m) = 10 ^ ( (107 - |dBm| ) / 20 )

Is this valid? I saw this formula somewhere and jotted it down.

Your expression does not apply in general, it is the unstated
assumptions that are the issue (freq, receiver R, antenna factor.
bandwidth).

The calculator at http://www.vk1od.net/sc/FS2RPCalc.htm my be of
interest.

Thanks!
