Hallo to all,

I have been reading a paper regarding electric pulse attenuation and
the values are quoted in dB. The conversion to dB was done by
multiplying the value with (20log10e) where "e" is the base of the
natural logarithm.

Not heard of it being done with base e

I see this conversion to dB fist time. I can not find any information
in my math books or the web.

Does any of you have any information regarding this that I can read so
I can understand it better?
