Paul,

I also have installed the IRC/INRAD and have reduced the setting of 9-1 from 13
to around 9.  I didn't see any significant S-Meter reduction but the noise went
down.  Haven't noticed the over-shoot yet but now that you have mentioned it
I'll pay some attention and see what I can hear.  Over all I am impressed with
the mod and plan on a report what my impressions are and the impact it has had
on the 1995 production run.  That's how old my rig is.
