Don, when the RF gain is fully cw ( max ) I have 3 bars on the S Meter, when I slowly reduce the RF gain control I watch the S Meter and when I get it just past the 9 o'clock position the S Meter will reduce to only 1 bar showing. you can hear the background noise drop as you do this, then I just add a bit more gain back just enough to hear the noise increase back up. the lowest I can reduce the S meter is to 1 bar showing, I add just enough gain back to get the 2nd bar to flicker.. if i reduce the gain to much the S meter will start to climb back up in the normal maner....
