The slow decay was more intended to make the meter easier to read. There have been some other colourful explanations, but I think that’s the simplest. With best wishes DESIGN IT IN!

The purpose was to emulate electronic devices that are sensitive to this sort of response. As such, we use to peak to detect potential interference and then a combination of average and QP for pass/fail determination. All the best Doug
