I visited my friend who has an Orion II a while back and noticed two things that I thought were kinda strange. First, when using the multi-knob to back down on the RF gain it only took a quarter turn

Joe, On my O2 using VER. 2.028, the RF gain is reduced from 100 to 60 or thereabouts when turning the multi knob slowly. The S-meter reading moves from 0 to S9 with this adjustment. When adjusting th

I am in agreement with you as far as the RF gain and the S meter is concerned. I have heard arguments for having the S meter go up as the RF gain goes down. But my preference would be to leave the wa

Dave, you'll probably get a bunch of comments. I find the AGC settings very non-critical and just leave them at default. What IS important, is to use relatively high AF Gain and low RF Gain. First, f

I completely disagree with setting the audio gain high. This almost completely defeats the beautiful AGC system in the Orion. Carl Moreschi N4PY 58 Hogwood Rd Louisburg, NC 27549 www.n4py.com On 12/1

There are obviously different schools of AGC thought. I am solidly in the wide audio dynamic range, low AGC compression school. Perhaps K3NA wrote the book about 5-7 years ago on why you want this an

Barry makes some good points on why to do this. As far as the rush of band noise between words, that's easily fixed by using slow AGC. But the biggest problem with the scheme of using high audio gain

That's why the very first step was turning RF Gain to full max, tuning in an s9++ signal and setting the AF Gain so the signal is comfortably loud. You leave the AF Gain right there (always) and you

Why wouldn't just setting AGC to medium or slow solve all the problems you are trying to fix. That way you never get blasted, you don't have to find a very strong signal to set audio gain, you never

You WILL have AGC compression unless RF Gain is throttled because the AGC threshold will be too low. It's a simple matter of how much audio dynamic range you want to present to your ears. You have to

Isn't this part of why TT provided AGC slope in the RX menu? I find that, depending on conditions, either 1:10 or 2:10 allows me to separate signals rather well in a pile-up. A strict adherence to AF
