I went through the TRX-2 manual for this answer prior to posting. I do know how to read, much the surprise of some on this forum 
Does anyone know what the attenuation level is applied when active? 1dB? 3dB? 5dB? Just wondering how much I'm getting when it's active.
I live in an area where it's very likely that one received transmission to the next can go to front end numbing strong to barely breaking squelch. I have had mixed results running attenuation. At times it does seem to help with trunking systems. However, a majority of what I am listening to is conventional analog and in those cases, I think running global attenuation could be hiding some of it. I understand that I can enable attenuation per channel and that might very well be what I do, but for now I wanted to play with it globally and see how it affected things.
