RF Preamp(Meter)
Sets the meter preamplifier to be on or off. When the signal under test is a low-level
signal, turning on the preamplifier can reduce the displayed average noise level, so
that you can distinguish low-level signals from the noise. By default, the preamp gain
is 20 dB.
Y Axis Unit
Sets the unit of the Y-axis to dBm, dBmV, dBμV, Volts, or Watts. Wherein, dBm, dBmV,
and dBμV are for Log scale; Volts and Watts are for Linear scale. The default unit is
dBuV.

The conversion relations between units are as follows:
