[mrtg] MRTG query and Dividing by 10

Hello all,

I'm pulling signal to noise (SNR) ratios from my Cisco UBR 7200s and I
get results just great.  Unfortunately cisco gives the outputs in tenths
of a dB...  So if my current SNR was 28.4dB it would come out as 284
when I query the OID.  Is there a way to tell mrtg to divide by 10 on
the results?

Here's my snippet of my mrtg.cfg for this particular query:

Target[nn.nn.nn.nn-snr_35]:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.10.127.1.1.4.1.5.12&.1.3.6.1.2.1.10.127.1.1.4.1.5.12:community at nn.nn.nn.nn:161:90:5:3:2

As I said..  This works great for those that can understand what the
output really is.....  I put a MaxBytes of 400 in due to a bug in Cisco
that when quering this particular OID you get bizarrely high numbers at
times (such as 18450) - which MRTG will drop quite nicely.  For anyone
that might be interested in using this - you need a recent IOS load... 
mine's 12.1(12c)EC.

If I could get a divide by ten to go somehow - I'd be golden!!

Thanks for any help in advance!!
