Commenting ONLY on this part of it, the slider does seem a bit redundant, and I 
could easily do without it.  I tend to use a set calibration point.  I never 
adjust it because it is set for the particular rig to computer interface on the 
quietest band/frequency, and with the antenna in the quietest direction.  For 
me, this is done on six meters.  When I get to that calibration point, I set 
the slider at mid-scale, as we were instructed, and 0db on the sound card.  
THEN adjust the WG/FG controls for my preferred view and hide the controls.  If 
I go to some frequency or band where the level increases, I decrease it with 
the RF gain for the proper meter reading.  The original set point was with full 
RF Gain.  Remember, I calibrated on the quietest conditions I could fined.  The 
slider never moves once it is set.
