Re: What accessories do I need for a TinySA Ultra?

Yea, Don, get the newbies to use proper abbreviations!? I've called it out many times, but it seems to fall on deaf ears and clearly never reaches the gray matter.? What really gets my goat is "mhz".? What is mhz?? MilliHertz?? Nothing the typical amateur deals with delves into the milliHertz range!? Further the proper abbreviation for Hertz is Hz, not hz!? Should I give up?

My observation is that very few people use units of dbW even when working at high power, dbm (relative to 1 milliwatt) being far more common.?
If a colleague started using dBW I would ask them why as I see no good reason for it, it is likely to cause confusion.? Like 1000X level confusion.

In the RF world, if something is written as "xdB" it is NOT a power level, it is a power ratio, or actually 10log of that ratio.?

The TinySA power specs all use dBm AFAIK.
