Hi Lyle, Did something else change with the way mic gain and bias is handled? Prior to 4.17/4.18 with mic bias set to LOW, I couldn't turn gain up past 5 before ALC started to reduce drive. At a setting of 4 or 5, I'd get 5-7 bars ALC at voice peaks. I always chalked this up to the fact that the MH2 had a hot element.
Last night, I got on 10 meters to talk to a friend on a repeater, and noticed that I had to crank gain up to 10 to get the same level of ALC action. Bias is still set to low. I checked on other bands, and a mic gain of 10 now seems to be the sweet spot. Reducing mic gain back to 4, and I'd barely get 1 bar of ALC to flicker. I don't mind this at all, but am curious if other things were impacted and require adjustment i.e., TX EQ settings, compression, etc. Thanks, James K2QI On Fri, Nov 5, 2010 at 8:48 PM, Lyle Johnson <[email protected]> wrote: > On 11/5/10 5:44 PM, James Sarte wrote: > > Hi Lyle, > > Nice work.
