Thanks to the replies I've received so far! Ron, you are correct in that my message was asking to different questions. The first is whether the MDS I calculated was typical even though the XG1 'manual' indicates I should expect -125db vs. my measured at -120db. I don't recall whether I set the filter to 500hz, so I'll go back and do it again. With a smaller bandwidth, the XG1 OFF noise level might be lower enough to get me closer to nominal. To the others that responded about the audio level, I guess I should have stated that the headphone level is LOUD. It' the speaker level that I was trying to fix. I mean, why have a speaker if it can't be heard? I have an ICOM 703 that fills the room with audio. It's just nice to use the speaker to tune through the band and if there is a station I want to contact, THEN use headphones. Buying an external speaker to use is another possibility, I suppose. Jim (K4ZM), your thought about checking Q10 is a good one. I'll check it out and let everyone know. 73, Clark, KE4RQ
