Holding my tongue firmly in my cheek, I suggest that we can give 'proper' S reports without an S-meter at all. S-3 - I can barely hear you S-5 - You have a weak, but copyable signal S-7 - Good copy, but not the strongest signal S-9 - armchair copy S-9+ - you are really booming in here.
For contests, there is no problem, everyone is 599 or 59 anyway unless it is a QRP contest where S-7 is the norm. 73, Don W3FPR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
