=\ means 'not equal to'
Seems to be a bit of a mixture. In UK broadcasting the PPM was/is the
normal metering system - not a VU. With PPM4 the reading for a 1v peak to
peak signal. Peak is 8 dB above that, and 10dB left as headroom. Hence -18
dBFS being the reading to line up to on a digital recorder. Known as EBU
spec. VU meters usually read about -4 on this reference signal. But I've
no real experience of VU meters.
