How do I turn down VAC 1 on Flex5K

Recently the audio for VAC 1, my input has become REALLY hot.
Sure it wasn't so hot before.
I now have to adjust VAC RX Gain to -40 which is the softest setting.
The bloom just overcomes the mark and space display on receive.
Transmit is fine.

Been doing a lot of JT and PSK lately, I don't remember changing anything but maybe I did and don't remember.
Forgive me, that second TIA has left me with some 'bewilderment' problems. :-((

Looking for suggestions here....
tu in advance

    Bill, what do you have the AGC-T gain set to? Cut it waaaaaaaayy back and see if that helps.

    For a normal setting that I hear comfortably, I have AGC-T between 75 and 95.
    That's a soft normal for both speaker and headphones.
    Right now I hav VAC1 RXGain at -40.

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.
