Hi Joe,

 

the changed lettering for the PREAMP/ATT  function is a little bit confusing
for me:  A pad in the signal path between ant and rx will reduce the signal
strength and should be indicated. MDS will be reduced by the same amount.
This can be watched on the meter as well on the panadapter. But with a
signal at the ant plug actually I can't watch a difference on the meter. I
assume the software emulates  more  a proper preamp- function, indicating
the signal value at the antenna plug. BTW  Gerd's  mercury_eu  is using a 12
dB pad instead of the 20 dB one, so things get more confused. 

May be there other reasons to provide things so?
