I also recommend the Schaffner charts. They are just packed
with good reference information! 

Put them up next to your screen room, situated so when you
have a visitor, the charts would be visible over his shoulder.
The next time some wise guy who has just taken an EMC
seminar asks you to some wise guy question like "name 
the dB equivalent of 31.62 microvolts per meter," you
can do a David Letterman chin scratch while casually 
scanning the poster out of the corner of your eye ... and 
say "why, of course, in a 377 ohm free space environment,
the square root of 10 being 3.162, then the answer just has
to be, oh, 30 dB microvolts per meter. While I'm at it, did you
also want to know what that is in dB micro amps per meter?"

Caution: pull too many of these amazing mental feats out
of the air, and nobody will want to sit at your table in the
cafeteria....

See ya.
Mike
