The beauty of a radio where all the display functions (including the  
S-meter) are managed by the housekeeping processor is that the  
programmer can easily include a table lookup to calibrate the meter  
display. Frankly, it would only increase the size of the code that  
implements the S-meter by 4-5 lines.
