Mic Gain Help Needed

KD8NNU


MIC SEL  command question

According to the manual I should be able to turn on and off the
additional gain setting by tapping the "3" key.  It no longer appears to
work as I get N/A on the display.

Is this no longer working with the production release of software?

I need to try and lower the gain and I think its on the high position
for the additional gain stage.

Manual info below.

Mic/line transmit audio source, mic gain range, and mic bias. Source
selections:
FP (front panel 8-pin MIC jack), RP (rear panel 3.5 mm MIC jack), and
LINE IN
(rear-panel LINE IN jack). Tap 1 to toggle between .Low and .High mic
gain range
for the selected mic. Tap 2 to turn mic BIAS on/off (turn on for
electret mics).
For the front-panel mic only, tap 3 to turn on an additional gain stage.
Use this only
with very low-output mics. An apostrophe will appear after the H, e.g.
H’ .

Don,
It's a typo in the manual.
Tap 7 to turn on the additional gain stage for the front-panel mic.
