| HF1 Rx Gain | 0007 | 75 | 4B | IF gain setting for HF band 1 (0.1-<2.5 MHz.) This adjustment sets a bias current into D1063 in the 1st IF and, thus, has an effect on AGC, S-Meter, and noise blanker operation as well as having an effect on the absolute sensitivity of the FT-817's receiver. Lower numbers = greater attenuation. |
