[hpsdr] 2M Transverter with Mercury

Yes, this is normal to see the increase in noise floor. You can manipulate  
this in
a couple of ways: If your your 2M transverter has an internal RCV IF gain  
adjust,
you can lower the noise floor to some degree with it, but depending on  
which version
of PowerSDR you are using, if you set up your transverter using XVTRs you  
can 
lower the noise floor by using the RX Gain (db) adjustment.

Hello Folks,

I am using a 2M transverter with  Mercury, on powering on the transverter 
my noise floor increases from -130dBm  to -105dBm...is this normal?

Am I seeing the 25dB gain of the  transverter? 

Any help in understanding this phenomenon would be much  appreciated,

Regards,

Abhi
