Note:
The sync noise and power (types 5005, 5006) are special values obtained after packet processing in the
digital domain. They cannot be directly compared to the raw signal and noise values. To obtain an SNR
from these values the user needs to run the below formula on these values:
X = sync signal power;
Y = sync noise power;
