![]() Then you are still passing out wrong signal reports. The first one would be something like 5 x 2 or 5 x 3 and the second one would be 2 x 9 or 3 x 9. The first number is how well you can understand what is being said and the second is how strong the signal is. If you mean the actual strenth of the signal in uv at the antenna, then you are correct. If you mean the strength of the signal in your EARS that's another story. One is an actual measurement, the other is subjective. (How would you measure signal strength if you were using a receiver without an s meter, such as an old SW3?) I don't mean a thing. If you take some time and review the RS(T) system you would see how it works. The first number is how well you understand what is being said from just catching a few words to understanding everything. The second is the strength of the signal. As the SW3 does not have an AVC system you may be able to judge the strength by how far up you have to turn the volume control for a certain loudness in your ears. |
