Hi Jim,
   if you go to...   http://216.101.23.70/ and click on icom ag2400 pdf you 
can see its manual..  with <1.5 db nf and > 25db gain its nothing special 
other than the price I'm sure...hehe  and no it does not give you a 2400mhz 
readout... 
  but if your a real ICOM diehard... it and a 4 or 5 foot dish and your all 
set...
