WiNRADiO G3XX VHF/UHF Receiver
The Avg button, when activated, shows the S-meter level value as a floating
average within the preset time interval (settable from 1 to 99 seconds). This is
used to smooth the S-meter movements. Any change which may affect the
S-meter value (such as tuning the receiver to a new frequency or changing the
attenuator setting), resets the averaging interval, so that the S-meter may
react immediately to such change.

Note: The S-meter relies on the AGC for its proper operation. Therefore, if the
AGC is switched off and manual IF gain is used instead, the S-meter is also
disabled.
