Jim, Some drop in apparent volume level is typical with NR. Part of the drop is due to the removal of noise. Part of it may be a psychoacoustic effect (sorry, I'm not an expert on this).
You might also try setting F5-1. Settings from F5-x to F8-x use a different algorithm. 73, Wayne N6KR On Oct 4, 2010, at 9:04 AM, Jim Harris wrote: > > Hi, > > I've noticed recently that when I press NR the volume level drops > what could be called a considerable amount.
