Every time I see one of those plots from the ARRL Lab, I wonder “what is a good number?” I really wish they would add some additional lines to the graph. One suggestion: * FCC regulated limits (where they exist) * 90th percentile (best 10%) of tests in the previous five years * Best test in the previous five years I think those would be a nice contribution towards the "Continuation and extension of the amateur's proven ability to contribute to the advancement of the radio art”, to quote Part 97. I guess I should be telling this to QST and the ARRL Lab, not this list, but does this sound like a good idea to others? Maybe Elecraft can publish these for the K4 to get the ball rolling. wunder K6WRU Walter Underwood CM87wj http://observer.wunderwood.org/ (my blog) ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
