I turned on my KWM2-A this afternoon and immediately was struck by very high
S-meter readings. The receiver is very "hot" (sensitive). The no signal
S-meter position today is about S-9+10 and most signals pin the S-meter with
the RF gain set to max. The 2A is behaving normally otherwise. It seems
like the AGC action is absent. I was making some adjustments before going
on the air. Is it possible that I accidentally turned something to cause
this change? I swapped out the 516F-2 for a different one and it made no
difference.
I am looking for suggestions on how to troubleshoot this problem.
Thanks and 73,
Torrey N9PY
