You want the latest production release. All previous changes are included in the latest version. Be sure to load all parts of the update: MCU, FP, and DSP. They all work together. You must also do a TX Gain Cal after the update. GL! Brian, K0DTJ __

There is some conflation of two quite different concepts going on here. The first thing you need to know about an AGC response graph is the speed that the incoming signal was varied to produce the curve. In many cases, the input signal was steady state from a signal generator, set to a list of inp

I've had my K3 since 2008 or so, and over the years I've seen people describe different forms of "mush". One set of comments indeed involved complaints about the hard limit at the upper end that has nothing to do with AGC. It is, as you say, simply a hard limit ... pretty much a clipper to
