wilnLoose... i just followed back on the thread... you can change almost any aspect of the link budget after the fact except perhaps the RF power as there is probably an FCC rule regarding this. The simplest change is an RF preamp with better noise figure than the existing one... or replace the transistor... improve the preselector... .Get yourself a surface mount rework station and go to town.... Other items are better receiver antenna configuration or higher gain TX antenna.

Actually the point that I took issue with was the same as the other post where the spec was posted in us ... this is a completely useless spec and I challenge anyone to unravel any meaningful significance (in the context of a reciver performance metric) from it as stated.. Perhaps there is some specmanship among the vendors but my gut tells me it has to be a typo.
