I was wondering if the Yaesu FT-277R has any type of microphone gain adjustment? I'm thinking of buying one since my FT-60R has no adjustment and I talk quietly and its a pain. On my Icom T70A it had 3 or 4 levels I seem to remember of adjustment. I mainly talk on UHF so the 277R is appealing to me, but I can't seem to find if it has any mic gain adjustment.

Try locating the service manual for it? The deviation may be turned down at the factory. ;)

The Yaesu HT's have a "secret" alignment menu which is not published in the owner's manual. If you call them & ask, they will tell you how to get into it. A few years ago I had a radio & the tx audio was way too loud. They told me how to get into the menu & turn it down.

Thank you Moonboots, its not quite what i was expecting though. I just want something in the menu I can change easily like I had on my icom ht. If I have to go jump hoops like this I will just go to another ht.
