[Elecraft] dBV reading on Kx3

[Lyle Johnson]

Nothing meaningful.

First, read AFV and for a couple of readings to set the reference. Then 
go to dBV.  dBV will then show you the difference in dB between the 
current signal and the reference.  On a dummy load it'll bobble around a 
low value since it is just thermal noise and not a signal you are measuring.
