[TenTec] Argonaut V gain help

[g p <n2wjw@yahoo.com>]

Is it me or does it seems the Argo V has way too much gain?
 
I know I can press the attenuator but that reduces the gain a bit too much and 
I would like to find a happy medium.
 
Is there a way of going inside the radio and making an adjustment? Im affraid 
this might not be the "go in and turn a pot down a little" type of radio..
 
Any advice or help would be appreciated
 
Thanks, Gil
