I know that this is a rather old thread that I have just come across when cleaning up my mail whilst waiting to fly through an ice storm to Boston. Why do the manufacturers still bother with S units. Why don't receivers just measure dBuV or dBm at the antenna?

Because that would mean equalising the gain exactly over the whole
range. Expensive. The WJ1000 does though.
