Re: KAM XL "Rcv" LED???

Gary,
Adjust your radios RF Gain control down so the rx light only flashes once in an awhile, while still responding to received tones. ?Mine is usually adjusted so the S meter reads about an S3 setting, oh I almost forgot, make sure the AM/FM button is set to AM!
The FM setting is much more sensitive, try using FM setting with CD set to software,
But I prefer the AM mode with CD set to internal, YMMV!

CD Software works great. ?We use this on VHF/UHF packet with the squelch wide open. ?Perfect for hearing weak signals. ?

Try changing the CD (Carrier Detect) to software, that should sort the blinking out.

cmd: CD software/software

Dumb question here, I have running station on NET 105, but am curious as to the "Rcv" LED? on my KAM. It blinks frequently even with the lack of packet signals, so I assume it is just responding to noise. With the "Calibrate" command, I can set TX level, etc, but not for RX.

I've toyed with the gain and similar without success. Am I trying to solve a problem that does not exist? Any suggestions?
