> ...set the transmit EQ to all maximum, I suggest you *not* do this. The EQ should be use to shape, not amplify. In general, I suggest you use the CUT side of the EQ (whether Tx or Rx) and only use the BOOST if absolutely necessary, and even then limit yourself to 3 or 4 dB of boost, not 10 or 12 or 16. 73, Lyle KK7P
