Hello,

First, I am late with my translation to Spanish but I will have time next week 
(finally!).

And I've been wondering about proper gain staging in WSJT-X for optimum 
reception. The manual suggests adjusting the input level and RF gain until the 
noise level is at around 30 dB according to the program display, but at least 
being audio minded it's difficult to refer to some external measure.

I am considering writing an article about this, giving some (hopefully useful) 
guidelines. I will send it to the URE magazine but I can write it in English as 
well and share, of course.

I have some questions:

Does the input level send gain adjustment orders to any USB device or is it 
purely a digital gain applied to the sampled signal? At least on Mac OS X I 
haven't observed any change in the input gain of an IC-7200 (it has a TI 
PCM2901E)

What is supposed to be the unity gain setting for the input level slider? 

How does the displayed input level relate to dBFS (decibels related to full 
scale)? 

I could measure that but I am not sure about its behavior on different 
platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X) and with different devices, so it would be 
great to know what it's supposed to be.
