In working with Lyle on earlier versions of the rf calibration I saw some of this same action. In some cases, the s-meter wouldn't even reach FS at min RFG.
You might try backing off to factory defaults and starting over, making sure you have the latest utility.

If in Config menu >>Smeter OF or other Smeters menus and I move the RF Gain the Smeter will respond as you would expect.(this is just a curious sidebar that is probably not useful info) In normal operation AGC OFF or ON S or F , PRE ON or OFF, ATT IN or OUT, ALL MODES ALL FITERS I get a gain increase in the main rcvr at the 9:30 position of the the main rf gain. Since the RF Gain calibration works for the sub reciever and the RF gain and S meter on the Sub rcvr work correctly I am beginning to suspect the JFET IF Amp and associated circuits of the main rcvr.
