Turning the RF gain back will peg the meter as my FT 2000-D does.

Done so you can see what signal you need to overcome the lower rf gain you set.


Do use the manual, it is quite a complicated radio for a first step in to amateur radio, i'm a ham for the better part of 37 years and i kept the manual close for months.


Setting it up for personal wishes in receive/transmit will take weeks to do till you are satisfied, but then the radio will work like a champ.
