Some published "dB" values for equipment assume a certain voltage into 600ohms for 0dB, although I don't remember what that voltage is. Of course this isn't real dB since that represents a dimensionless ratio, but mere laws of physics and mathematics don't get in the way of product literature. ***************************************************************** Embed Inc, embedded system specialists in Littleton Massachusetts (978) 742-9014, http://www.embedinc.com -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
