Excuse my ignorance, but what would -73dbm be in microvolts?

Later today I was on 17 meters, and had a multiparty QSO, which included Rob
Sherwood - he was a bit 40db over 9 on the main, and under thirty on the
sub.  It appears that with signals under S-9, the main and sub-recievers
read about the same.  On these loud signals,  there is still a significant
difference, with the main receiver reading a higher level.  I plan on
playing around a bit more.  Tom W6EIJ
