DRC value
This option sets the Dynamic Range Control (DRC) value to be applied to received broadcasts. DRC is used to reduce the range between high and low volumes of audio and is sometimes applied at the broadcast source. Pop music may have a high value of DRC applied, appropriate for constantly high listening levels, while classical music broadcasts may have no DRC applied to allow the listener to hear the full dynamic range of the source volume.
There are three values of DRC you can apply.
0: None 1/2 : Medium
1: Maximum
