Hi, Thanks.
I have checked the SWR which is a tad high (1.8 to 1 in band middle - radio ham here so test kit and 2955 etc. is available) The radio is sensititve enough, its just once you get about four or five miles out from any airfield you have to pull the squelch knob out, if you do that you get clear comms to twenty miles plus...? Its just been through the "radio annual" so they maybe don't check this. I'll have a look to see if the sticky lables have been removed?
Would have been nice if it just had an old fashioned squelch adjustment knob on the front...
Thanks once again
Kevin.
