[TenTec] Odd RF Gain Problem with My O2

[Bob Lightner]

My Ten-Tec Orion II (purchased in 2007) seems to be a little sick. Serial
Number: 01C10877

When I turned it on this morning, after about 5 seconds of normal receive,
suddenly I noticed that the S-Meter is reading 30 over 9. I can hear
signals in the background, but they do not seem to be as strong as usual,
like the RF Gain is up...but it isn't. I can vary the RF Gain from 1-100
and it doesn't do any good.

I have connected several different antennas, switched bands, etc., all with
the same results. The rig transmits fine.

I did a Master Reset twice and it did not solve the problem.

I'm using software version 3.029.

Got any ideas?

73,
Bob/W4GJ
