Hi Bill,
You should still be able to compare yourself to V31MA using the RBN data.
Just find out how much power V31MA was running and compare it with your
power level in units of dB. Then you can use the RBN data to compare your
signal to V31MA as long as you subtract the dB difference in power from the
V31MA data.
Hope that makes sense.
73,
