When the analyzer finishes the sweep, notice the mean value (which appears
on the analyzer display).
6
Convert the measured linear magnitude mean value to log magnitude, using
this equation.

NOTE
Notice that the mean value that is displayed on the analyzer is in
µ
Units. So, for exam-
ple, if the displayed value is 62
