Alex,
 
Personally, I'd leave it alone, unless you were really limited with your receiving antenna. I use a loop for LF receiving, and a 30 dB preamp. I leave the R-75 internal preamps off, as they pick up some "birdies" within the receiver. The resulting signal levels appear to be more than sufficient for serious LF work. This was the setup that I used last week to copy G3AQC on 73 kHz.
 
The R75 is a very nice receiver for the price, and one of my smarter buys.

Dear,
        I just bought a new IC R75 to replase an old FRG-100 and I'm looking for any modifications to improve the LF performance of the receiver.   Shematic diagram wasn't included with the manual.... It uses 10 DB or more attenuation below 1,6 MHZ.
Any help will be very useful to improve me LF instalation here.
Many thanks. Alex SV8QG
