[R-390] GR Adapter and Signal Generator findings

Yeah, I'd guess the generator is leaking some, but it did seem odd that with
the attenuator turned all the way down, I could not hear any signals from
the generator.  If it is leaking from somewhere besides through the cable
going to the radio, it would seem that I would still hear the signal when
the attenuator is fully "off".  Don't know, though.

I tend to agree.  If it picks up that well with my cubical desktop
"antenna", it seems the radio is working pretty well.

Thanks!
