2005 Orion 565 manual revision 3 , bandpass filter quote. About 1375b5 much
superior for weak signal ssb 75 meters, 2059d unuseable with or without agc
unless signals near or above noise level.. I generally use 5 db/s decay,
threshold .4 uv hang 0 , 2.4 filter ,rx eq -10 (varies with station) plenty
of volume no distortion . Sometimes i use NB 2 or 3 H , sometimes not..RF
Gain varies from 100 to as low as 50 depending on signal noise etc. The
2059d distorts badly with signals near noise level or below, signals above
noise are readable but volume is very low even with main af at max. On
1375b rarely does the main af go above half scale on headphones. Another
thing to try is an outboard audio adaptive dsp unit, it really helps at
times. Hopefully 2059d will be fixed soon 73 ken kb7up
