Board types "174", "179", and "191".
Problem found on multiple examples of each of these boards: Low RX sensitivity.
Case 1: About 15 dB loss in signal strength. Loss measured by means of inputting a
calibrated signal into the front end via an antenna port adapter, and using the signal
strength meter in the radio's FCC menu.
Case 2: Same as above but the loss is about 45 dB.
Unfortunately I lack an RF probe so I can't accurately read the signal strengths at
various points in the front end.
Have you seen this problem before and do you know of a typical cause and cure?
