The original S meter development for HF radios was done by Art Collins.
At that time the number used was 100 uV for S-9 to coincide with the RST
system. Later the value was revised to 50 uV for S-9. Values above S -
9 are stated usually in dB although I've seen some in microvolts. If
one ventures into the VHF spectrum then the value changes. {I forget to
what value}
73
