RE: [Elecraft] K3: AF Gain delay?
I haven't noticed it here. I have the latest beta. Bob Serwy - N9RS -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joel R. Hallas Sent: Saturday, July 05, 2008 1:49 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] K3: AF Gain delay? Folks, I notice a significant delay in response to the AF Gain control while in receive so far just one receiver here!). I'm not sure if it has always been this way and I hadn't observed it b4, but certainly for the last few F/W upgrades. I haven't done the most recent beta version since my radio PC is currently casters up. It doesn't matter the mode, BW, AGC or NR setting. With a loud signal present, turning the AG Gain down seems to have no effect until it is down way too far, likewise when bringing it back up to compensate. I finally decided it was working, just exhibiting a delay of somewhere around 1/4 - 1/2 second. Have others noted this and/or, better yet, found a way to avoid it? Thanks much! Regards, Joel Joel R.
