White. Noise vr pod


The RF gain reduces gain, it doesn't eliminate RX altogether. Depending on the level of natural/manmade noise you will still hear some even with it wound right down, it'll just not be as strong as it was. So if the RF gain reduces gain by 20dB and you have a -100dB noise source, it'll be -120dB with the RF gain reduced and that'll still be audible.

There is also the internal noise generated by the components in the radio as well.
 
Does anybody happen to know witch vr pod controls white noise and static when I have my rf gain closed I still get static thanks

Just for the record it is "pot" not "pod". It is short for potentiometer. I wish I had a dollar for every time someone called it a pod. I would be a very wealthy man.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
