I'm afraid that this choice would be bad for the current TLV
representation.  The default resolution is 256, so -30/30 dB range
doesn't match to this resolution.  We should change either resolution
(e.g. 120, corresponding to 0.5dB step), or the range.

Otherwise it looks fine to me.


Thanks,

Takashi
