Please let me correct my typo: 100 mW is 30 dB down, not 40. Correct hand, wrong finger. 100 mW should be close to S0, 2 S-units into the noise.

One can do this with the NCDXF Beacons ... they change in four 10 dB
steps, 100 W, 10 W, 1 W, and 100 mW.  No sunspots right now, but you
might be able to hear one or two of them on 14100.  Most interesting
thing I notice is, while the 100 W signal may be S6 in S2 noise, I can
still hear the 100 mW signal which should be 40 dB down [~S0].  The math
is sound and exact, the reality ... not so much.
