Receiever test with new hermes lite

[Zach Farmer]

Good day,

I received my hermes lite, and love the thing with thetis!

I feel like my receivers ears arent that great though?

Is there a way to test my receive to ensure it is functioning properly?

Thank you kindly in advance,

Zach

A simple test for an HF reciever is to disconnect the antenna, set the RF gain to normal and set the AF gain to have a good amount of noise in the speaker/ headphones and then reconnect the antenna and tune to just noise. If the noise increases when connecting the antenna, the radio is sensitive enough to hear atmospheric noise, so you are good.

What is your RX LNA set to? You usually need it set in the +12db to +20db range.

I have tested this with contacts I am familiar with and have utilized my g90 as a reference and my g90 is able to pick up and the hermes is not

Thank you for the reply Steve,

Can you tell me where in the settings to find that?

Thank you,
