Understandable (thanks). For a reference point, my "stock" Sangean PR-D15 is able to receive a 530 kHz TIS station located about 35 miles from me. Earth conductivity along the groundwave path is ~

RE: I still prefer a good old analog "S" meter though. Especially when calibrated properly However an "S" meter even perfectly calibrated to meet the prevailing standard for it also does not take

Very good and interesting information Richard. Though I have never considered the readouts on my ultralights to achieve metrology grade accuracy. Rather simply a relative indication of signal

Many Ultralight receivers include a display of signal strength and S/N for the received signal. This information is useful, although it doesn't accurately show the field intensity of the signal
