Check the AF LIM settings.  {page 57 in the manual}    Typical value is 
NOR 030.

73

If I do a long press on the AGC button then AGC switches off but so does the audio. I still see the S meter moving slightly which is strange when the AGC is off. On all my other radios when I switch AGC off then the S meter does not function. I assume that there is a another setting that causes this ..... or it is a bug. For now I have set the AGC threshold quite high which I may end up doing on a permanent basis, then locals don't distort 😊
