[ICOM] Mic gain on the 706 MKIIG

[Paul Gates, KD3JF]

You would not have to yell if you set the mike gain as the manual suggests.

I also have this issue with my 706.   I think I have my gain set to 3
and I yell at it on SSB and hold the mic about a foot away on FM.

There must be some way to set things so this dosent happen.  What
makes it worse is My kenwood d700. I always have to yell at that thing
so I find my self over driving my 706 on FM.  just 'cause I'm trained
to.
