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.
