HI all

Interesting expt.  I’ve had to wind back the power setting on the IC706mk2g from “4” to “2” so assuming a halving i.e. 3dB.  (this was because the MF RF was making my kids skype and XYL’s netflix run rough!, one wonders who pays the bills round here!!)

So far it seems to have made a -1dB to -2dB change in some more Dx reports while others have not changed or increased even.

I’ll stick with “2” for now.

Cheers
