Dave, The sampling point for the K3's hardware AGC is before the DSP in the signal path, so unfortunately the DSP filter does not protect the HAGC. The roofing filters protect the HAGC.
There is another design approach to eliminating AGC pumping problems, but that is another story :-) 73, Geoff GM4ESD On July 12, 2011 at 21:21 Z, Dave Hachadorian wrote: > I think one of the Elecraft folks stated on the reflector that > the -60dB BW of the DSP is (-6dB BW + 300Hz). > > So at DSP BW = 2800 Hz, > BW60 = 3100 Hz. > Equivalent shape factor would be 3100/2800 = 1.1 > That's pretty doggone steep. > Any reasonable amplitude signal (not triggering hardware AGC) > over 1550 Hz off center would be down 60 dB. > > I think I've got that straight.
