Thanks for clarifying that, Grant!  (I had my doubts when I posted it, but
that didn't stop me. ;-)

I was poking around the Bergfotron site, yesterday. It has a chart
http://www.idg.se/personal/bergfors/bergfotron/VCA.htm which got me
wondering -- there are 2 SNR columns and some "attenuation" columns. Oops!
Then I looked at an Analog Devices VCA datasheet that had both SNR and
dynamic range specs, and I knew that a correction was in order.
