Noisefloor Flex 6400M

Hi all

I have a Flex 6400M that is just a couple of months old, and I just started using it with my new antenna. After a couple of weeks I was starting to suspect that the noise level was to high. On 17m I have a 4-5 s-units noise floor, right now S4 (appx -118 db). The thing is, even without an antenna connected, I have this level, -120 db to be precise, still say S4 on the meter.
Question: Is this normal?
I have switched of all circuits in the house, run the rig on battery, same story.
No antenna.... 4 s-units, hmmm.

Any comments?

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
