RF attenuator
I am very new to the Kiwi sdr, just 2 days into it. All of a sudden I have the Attn orange box flashing in the S meter panel, is this something I could have turned on and can it be turned off ? I assume this is an attenuator.
It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!

On the user control panel (lower right), click the green "RF" button. Then click the green "0 dB" button (or slide the slider left to 0 dB). That should stop the flashing ATTN indicator reminder in the S-meter.
Many thanks, that worked fine. How would I have managed to turn it on in the first place though ?
On the admin page, "config" tab, top left, "initial values for: RF attn (default value at restart)" is that value set to zero?
It is now but I think I did move it yesterday.
