How To Use Your RF Gain Control

[J0llyR0ger]

Should have used LINUX (or a Mac) :)

when your getting bleedover and your talking to someone with a good strong signal, turn the rf gain down to reduce there signal so it still sound good and then you will also reduce bleedover and other interference..

I think rf gain is a key feature on most transceivers....

Thanks for the explanation. That sure wasn't covered in the manual for my Yaesu HF radios.

thats always been the way that i have always used it. Some of my contacts mind have argued my signal level strengh i have recived them on because of the rf gain. they say keep it all the way up to gain a true reading of there signal i am reciving. which i find silly yet rf gain is an amazing feature to have on your radio i personally buy my rigs with the gain controll so i can clean up chanel noise
