Joe, The problem with the having a single slider distribute the gains is that you need a calibration point to set equal gains on main and sub, or else a means to turn the distribution feature off. Otherwise you will spend an inordinate amount of time trying to balance the gains when you want near or precisely equal gains on both. I don't really see any advantages to distributing the gains; if there are some please tell me. The advantage of having precisely equal gains on both is to be able to measure signal strength on one and relate that to signal strength on the other when using third party software that uses a spectrum display, such as MixW. The feature of having two gain controls works now. The only hang up I have with the two gain controls is the main gain control is positioned under Sub receiver where the sub receiver gain control should be positioned under sub receiver.
