You will find the APF control useful to reduce band noise. Tune into a band at
an open freq and adjust you APF while watching your S-Meter. My APF is on all
of the time and usually around a setting of 1 which is where it reduces the
band noise considerably. If I need it to peak a CW signal, I then move it to
the correct setting to peak the signal I am trying to listen to. Other than
that, my APF is on all the time and usually at a setting around 1. Try it while
watching you S Meter. You will find it reduces band noise while not
significantly affecting signals in the bandpass.
