The old "S" meter standard was 6 dB per "S" unit. 
Therefore, a 4 dB increment will be only 2/3rds of an
"S" unit.  Of course with "modern" receivers a 4 dB
increase in signal might equate to 40 dB in the "S"
meter reading!

If you could crank the drive level down, you MIGHT be
able to use the SB-220 at about 375 watts input, but
that would only be about 4 db difference in signal
level output, or 1.5 "S" units at the receiving end.
