Hi Bob, Sounds normal and very much like my K2. The RF gain in the K2 is really an IF gain with the front end RF gain set at a constant level and only affected by switching in the preamp or the attenuator. I have an old JRC receiver where the RF gain works the same as the K2 in that the effect as the RF gain is turned down is the lower level signals fall below the threshold as the S meter rises and are effectively suppressed. This is a useful effect to give arm chair copy of stronger signals and minimises the amount of noise between syllables.
