Numerically lower = higher Tx level.  IOW, -10dbm is twice as strong as
-13dbm.  Having said that, the USR's Tx level is not fixed, and will vary
according to prevailing line condition.  On particularly good lines, the
level may be as low as -16dm or -17dbm.  There is no documented command to
force a specific Tx level on USRs (and the undocumented command appears not
to work anyway).
