S-Meter With 0.1 dBm Unit Resolution

I am setting up a 1296 EME station using my FlexRadio 6600 and I am trying to test things like low-noise-amplifier (LNA) front-end noise levels and antenna-pointing-accuracy by pointing the antenna toward the sun and measuring the noise produced by the sun. The SmartSDR-S meter very nicely gives the average level of the noise. However generally the sun noise is not so much higher than the noise floor of the LNA so there is a need to have higher resolution. The existing S-Meter has a helpful feature that allows switching to displaying in units of dBm. Is there a way to get the S-Meter to display with a resolution of 0.1 dBm?
