Gets the reference power corresponding to the gain reference to be used for compression point calculation when you set the SetCompressionPointGainReference(string, RFmxSpecAnMXAmpmCompressionPointGainReference) method to ReferencePower The reference power can be configured as either input or output power based on the value of the SetReferencePowerType(string, RFmxSpecAnMXAmpmReferencePowerType) method. This value is expressed in dBm.
