Lots of good info about AGC, but I'm thinking a lot of it is not that useful today.
In the old days, it sounds like you HAD to turn the AGC off for things to work right. That's no longer the case and our operating habits can, and have, changed. In my case, I leave AGC on 100% of the time. I'll turn the RF gain down to increase the signal to noise ratio. Turn the RF gain down to the point where the AGC is not doing much and you have the rig running as if AGC is off, but it is still there, able to respond to a big signal on freq to protect your ears. Can those of you who turn AGC off tell me why? What does it do for you that the AGC doesn't? - Keith N1AS - - K2 5411.ssb.100 - _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
