The first one, 10mW, is what a signal source would be providing to the 
BasicRX or LFRX input.  So if you set your signal generator to 10 dBm, 
you should see a signal at roughly full-scale.


The second one is the power that would be consumed at the input of the 
ADC, but that is a completely meaningless number.
