Don,

Dynamic Range is the range between the minimum signal that can be 
received to the maximum signal level that causes compression of the 
radio output.
A greater dynamic range means that you can listen to two signals in the 
passband, one quite weak and one quite strong without overloading the 
receiver.
That is about the most elemental terms that I can use to describe 
dynamic range.
