Set Audio AGC

(Requires firmware 3.00 or newer). This setting helps balance the audio level you hear as you listen to different radio sources so you can hear them at a

similar volume.

Note: It is important that you correctly set the modulation type for the channel you are programming. If you program a channel as NFM that is transmitting in

FM mode, the audio will sound too loud as compared to correctly programmed channels. Similarly, if you program a channel as FM that is transmitting in NFM

mode, the audio will be too quiet as compared to correctly programmed channels. Incorrectly matching the modulation setting to the actual modulation used is

the biggest reason for unbalanced audio between channels.

Scroll to 'Set Audio AGC' and press E/yes.

Scroll to Analog or Digital and press E/yes.

Scroll to On or Off and press E/yes.

Press Scan to exit.
