The major problem with the 7600GR that the 7600G did not have is
muting when you change frequencies, which slows you down to one poke
a second if you scan manually that way.

The attentuation is nice though in that it solves the fast AGC problem
that causes audible flutter when two stations with the right strengths
are on almost the same frequency, very common on MW. You can just
change the attentuation so the AGC doesn't kick in and it stops pumping.

Thanx for the tip, Ron... I'll be sure to put it into action when the time
comes....

Actually, you CAN scan without muting. Just press the up or down 1kz instead of
the 5kz, and keep it pressed. It scans just like a manual dial scan. When you
hear something, just lift your finger.

I did not discover this, someone posted it in this NG about 2 years ago, and I
was amazed that 1) I never knew this, and 2) the manual doesn't say anything
about it.
