It might be more helpful to store the AGC threshold and slope per-band. The underlying problem is that many people will see a 30-40dB variation in antenna noise levels between 30MHz and 1.8MHz, and the K3 has only limited facilities to pre-set its front end gain (the one-step 10dB attenuator, the +12dB preamp and the manual IF gain control). After that, it's all down to the AGC. -- 73 from Ian GM3SEK http://www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
