I'm a rocky? here. I will get this in a week or so...
This will work as the signal generator for what we need ?
Only with a signal generator I will be able to sort this issue ?

Right OK,

Do you have a signal generator?

The issue is low signal on the s meter as shown on the previous pics. The last pic is only to show that all the numbers of the s meter are ok.

What is the issue, The AF is the audio to the speaker, do you mean RF as your AF in down
?
?
With the AF at maximum I have all the readings. So the display is ok.

Hi Jaimie,
I think the next stage is contact me directly not go through the group, when your issue is fixed, I will give a summary to the group.
The Tiny Spectrum analyser is a marvel, 10 years ago a 4.5 GHz analyser would be in the region of ?20,000!
The Tiny SP also has a signal generator mode so you can apply 14 MHz at 50uV (-73dBm) this should give you S9 with preamp off, if not then we need to setup and fault find.

Do a reset on radio first before finding a fault that may not exist.
VFO knob is removed by turning radio upside down, look at shuffle jog, there is a slot in it. Use small Allen Key, about 1.5mm or 2mm and there is grubscrew in main knob.
