I've seen something similar, Stewart, but on CW.  Haven't investigated fully
yet, but this was occurring on 40 meters during the SS contest last weekend
when I switched the attenuator on and off (without preamp).  I have my S
meter calibrated in the absolute mode.  If I recall correctly, it was
increasing from S1 w/0 att to S3 or S4 with att.  Other than that
indication, the radio received just fine.
