Well, it also depends on the guy on the receiving end. If I'm recdeiving
you at s 1 and you drop your signal 6 db, I'll probably lose you. If, on
the other hand, you're s 9 and you drop an s unit, probably no big deal.
Something in the regulations about only using the power necessary... My
line noise here runs s 7 or 8, so often an s unit makes the difference
whether or not we can cary on a q s o.
