I'm a heavy user of diversity (99.9% of the time). I have many different RX antennas which have differing amounts of gain. For diversity to work correctly, I need both antennas to present the same RF levels to both receivers. I can make gross adjustments with ATT/PRE, but for fine tuning I would like to adjust RF Gain with a single fader (balance) control as has been implemented with SUB AF for AF Gain, instead of having to adjust the concentric RF Gain knobs.
Page 59 of the manual: "SUB AF - If set to BALANCE, then the SUB AF GAIN control becomes a main/sub AF balance control when the sub receiver is turned on (including diversity mode). In this case MAIN AF GAIN controls the AF gain level for both receivers. When SUB AF is at 12 o’ clock, both receivers will be at full volume (main left, sub right). If SUB AF is rotated fully counter-clockwise, you’ll hear only the main receiver. If it’s rotated fully clockwise, you’ll hear only the sub receiver. At intermediate settings you’ll hear both. A balance control is very useful for contesting and split operation. But it can also save a lot of AF gain control adjustment (i.e., matching main and sub), since MAIN AF controls both main and sub receiver audio." Please consider a "SUB RF" menu option for balancing RF Gain. 73 & Merry Christmas!
