I learn so much from you old guys with years of experience. I was tickled that I finally knew something helpful.
Technically in AM/FM that knob becomes the Squelch knob. I usually forget to turn it back clockwise when I go back to SSB & I wonder why I can't hear anyone.
My Force 12 C-3 has an extra director the manual says is intended for the 29MHZ portion of ten meters.
Speaking of teaching me stuff. I would like to learn everything there is to know about antennas.

I worked TY0RU on 14.180 at 19:35,,,, After more tries than I care to admit. ,,,, Anyway, I'm glad to see those guys up and running.

You are right San, I don't know of a single antenna that will split the upper end of 10M with the lower end and a tuner may be the only approach.  I have not been on 10M FM in years but I have a 10M FM repeater sitting out in storage hi hi.

J Setcer helped me about how to turn the RF gain alll the way down to get FM and AM stations. It works fine but minimal signals coming in on FM from Africa. Can hear the D60 using the SSB setting and RF gain set upwards, although he is on FM but not worth calling with my high SWR up about 29MC and not able to use an amp there. Learned something today I knew a few years ago about the 10 meter band if way up high in freq.. Most require some tuner assist if WAY up above about 28.7 -29.0 range, unless tuned to 1:1 at about 28.700 initially.
San   TU again Sir QJ!
