Re: The right way to interpret the content of SNR, signal strength and BER from HVR 4000 Lite

Let me ask this rhetorical question: if we did nothing more than just
normalize the SNR to provide a consistent value in dB, and did nothing
more than normalize the existing strength field to be 0-100%, leaving
it up to the driver author to decide the actual heuristic, what
percentage of user's needs would be fulfilled?

We don't need a new API and more complexity and/or code confusion, just standardize on the unit values for the existing APIs.

1) SNR in either units of db or units of .1 db (I don't care which, although I prefer the later).

2) Strength as a percentage.

The approach Devin outlined above has my support.
