Looks mint! Thanks for sharing

Good luck with the treatments and if I hear you on the band, I'll give you a shout!

Congrats, Shadetree! We want a video showing it off once you get it! I'm almost excited as you are. I haven't seen you with a tube radio since your Sonar was on the front page of this forum for a long time.

If Riverman was closer to Houston I'd go pick it up for you and ship it to you (you pay for shipping), Shadretree. I wouldn't be able to make the trip to Witchata Falls and back anytime soon though.

Pez, does it suffer from the same excessive receiver gain that the current batch 5555n II's & 955's do?

Looks excellent. I know you'll enjoy hanging out in there.

How's the noise floor? Does it compare with other radios you have on the same antenna? When you adjust the clarifier does it give some sort of + or - indication on the channel display (like the Q5N2 does?)

Welcome to the club. My 955 v2 exhibits the same just like my Q5N2.

Looks great.

Hopefully no noise issue like some of the Q5N2s have.

You have to key the mic to view/change current value. Probably a "safety" so people don't accidentally change values while thumbing through the menu.

Makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.

Maybe I was misinterpreting your posts. Anyway, back to the topic at hand. Sorry to derail the conversation. I appreciate you and Magnuman sharing this workaround. Very curious to hear what Anytone says.

Were your settings for RFG close the same or exactly the same? Maybe Scott from Scott's Radios could check the factory RFG value of some of the radio he aligns before shipping them out to confirm if they're all the same. He doesn't think there's an issue with any of these radios receive...

Is increasing the value of the RFG service menu item changing the 'range' of the RF gain knob on the front of the radio?
