[1000mp] Monitor roughness

Mon, 8 Mar 2004 08:16:13 -0600

Yes, mine used to do this often. Now that you reminded me, I notice that =
it
has stopped. I have sent it to Burhardt a couple of times for other =
problems
(intermittently went deaf) and now the roughness has gone away. I wonder =
if
they are related or if it was just coincidental?

An aside... Also, noted that when I get my rig back I always have to =
reset
all of the menus. One menu I had forgotten to reset was "9-1 rf-gain". =
If
this gain is set too high, your radio gets overloaded real easy. For =
those
that have done the mods, you want to be sure to check this if your menus
have been reset.
