I understand that the 6700 has a built-in preamplifer. However, I have not been able to find how to change the settings for the preamplifier in SmartSDR 2.4.9. 
Any help?

    Go to the Left pullout in the panadapter -> "Ant" ->  "RF Gain"    There is 4 RF Gain selections.

    If you have the 2mLDPA with USB for 2 meters then you also adjust the Pre-Amp in the 2mLDPA on that same menu.

    In the upper left hand corner of your screen where you adjust antennas you will have a choice of rf gain.  SOmetimes I like 10 dB for higher frequencies but usually just leave it at 0 for 80,40 and 20

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.
