I posted this earlier, and after recalling these suggestions from the
Contesting Compendium by Eric K3NA
(http://wiki.contesting.com/index.php/Category:Setting_receiver_gain_controls)
I tried them and found that the performance was very good indeed. His
explanations of the setup makes it easy.

When implemented as suggested the RF gain effectively becomes a combined
volume/RF gain control and weak DX often pops out of the noise. It's
certainly worth a try.
