    These meter scales should adapt to the rigCaps data about meter
    calibrations.
    
    Non-adapting meters:
    EMF/dBu/dBm from the R-8600
    Audio Meters, which are not really from a radio per-se anyway
    Center meter, as this seems to only be the R-8600 and it got messy
    immediately.
    
    There's considerable code in here which attempts to present a reasonable
    number of tic marks and values. This is needed because some radios
    provide a much wider span of values than others. For example, Icom
    meters up to 20:1 SWR, whereas Kenwood seems to go up to 5:1.
    
    We should probably consider an option to trim these super-wide span
    meters for more reasonable ranges (who needs to see SWR past 5:1???) as
    I think most people would favor more visual precision.
