[Elecraft] rx audio output K2

Isn't the position of the AF gain (volume?) dependent on the position of the
RF gain knob?  As I turn the "RF gain" knob clockwise, the AF gain (volume)
increases.  So it seems that the position of the AF gain knob is variable
with respect to the RF gain.

Just to get another thread going about this, I would ask where you best
position the RF gain knob when operating?

This topic comes up many times over and over on the reflector.  If you radio
is properly aligned and built you should have plenty of rx audio with the
volume set at 8 or 9 o'clock.  In the past the major problem has been those
that don't have the AGC properly set and thus the AGC is reining in the
received signals.  The easiest test to see if you have the AGC set properly
is to just turn it off and if you have an increase in volume you are not
properly set.
