For those of u who are using a very hot VHF receiver like the Ic 910, mine
specs at .11 uv for 20 db, I found the ARR mast mount to have too much gain.
I replaced the 78l05 with a 78l033 and realigned to reduce overall gain and
noise figure.
I never used the preamp because of this problem.Now when I switch the
preamp on and turn the ATT on, I can Dig a noisy signal out of the dirt
like never before.
Marginal copy way down below 1 degree becomes 59 .amazing.
