Purchased an Advanced Receiver Research model P50VDG preamp for my Flex
5000A and just installed it today. Using two 3' RG59 75 ohm patch cables
to connect the preamp in the RX1 loop. I read the KB article on the
antenna setup for using the RX1 loop and have that setup per the
instructions, but I want to pass this by the group to make sure I have
all my other settings correct. Of course I have the RX1 loop enabled,
but I also have the preamp controls for 6 meters enabled and the preamp
(Power SDR) turned off. Since the gain of the P50VDG is listed as 24 dB
I have the gain box in the antenna selection window set at 24 dB, and
the AGC-T I left set at 110. Does this appear to be correct? The
external preamp is working fine, I'm just a little concerned seeing the
noise floor on the panadapter drop so significantly. I want to make sure
my receiver S meter readings continue to be accurate.
