Thanks for the reasurance. Part of me was thinking that, but since the radio is so new to me, I worry that fixing the radio made it perform like excrement. WHen the radio arrived, I had to try it out before sending it off. The first few days I had it, there was some good skip and I was the man. I had several "wow, can't believe you're on a mobile." So I am probably just paranoid. It was spattering onto my 2M radio which i a definate no no. And the limiter was clipped as well. I don't like clip jobs either, because it takes away the point of talkback. I have to keep the mic gain down so far, to keep from overmodulating, that I can't hear the talkback.

Up until now, all I have run is type accepted radios. This is my first HP rig, so DX is still pretty new to me. I want to be heard, but it has to be clean. There may be an AB biased HD amp on my Christmas list.
