We have Hertz, Amperes, and Volts. How about a unit of
scarcity, in Stinson units? Or call it the "Stinson Scale",
like the Richter Scale idea. 

don't encourage him, ain't his head big enough already?

We have Hertz, Amperes, and Volts. How about a unit of
scarcity, in Stinson units? Or call it the "Stinson Scale",
like the Richter Scale idea. ( except not a geometric or
exponential progression ).
To calibrate the end points, consider a ham-modified 
BC-645: they're available, but no one wants them. That
would be zero. A "10" would be Dave's example of "M"
A.R.C. sets.  The BC-348 would be about a 5, equilibrium.
What say?  -Hue Miller  K7HUE
