Louis,
I am not one to give you specific settings for you to just plug in and
use. If I did so, I would just tell you to use the default settings.
Every location and operating style is different, and you can enhance the
AGC performance to meet your particular situation.
Please read the "Noisy K3" information on my webiste www.w3fpr/com to
give you guidelines on how to adjust your particular AGC.
Pay particular attention to the method for evaluating the results of
your adjustments - it is critical that you listen to short gaps in the
CW or SSB voice to determine the best settings for you.
73,
Don W3FPR

I have been following the thread with regards to the setting of the AGC of the
K-3 with great interest. I am new to the use of the K-3 even though I have
owned the radio for some time. I had a medical issue that delayed my use of
the unit. My K-3 has been updated with all of the current K-3s upgrades and
I use a KPA500. The thread has given several settings for AGC SLP and AGC THR
but I noticed that the setting for the other AGC settings are not mentioned.
Should I assume that the other default settings are to be used? I tried the
suggested settings and found that they did help with the reception of weak
signals. I work a lot of DX SSB and working the pileups can be a problem. I
also would like to thank KE7X for the great book on the K-3, it has been a
great help and has answered a lot of questions.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
