Question Noob question on RS SPL

Hi,

thanks a lot for your excellent software, it would take hours to calibrate a room without it.

I just plugged in a Radio Shack Digital SPL meter to my Mac and PC and as soon as I turn it on to 80db, REW shows 46db (or so), is this normal behavior? do I have a bad SPL meter? do I have a bad cable? when the SPL is not connected REW shows 3-4db. I have tried left channel and right channel with the same result.
I am hooking it up to the Line in of the computers using an RCA cable and a Stereo RCA to mini plug.

Thanks,

The Bu11
