There has to be a set of SMT caps that will fit back down onto those

I did an A/B test with before and after measurements at the speaker out

Yep you can do that just fine... Here is how I'd do that...
1. Get on your Freq with VFO A
2. Hold the Rate button in order to activate the lock feature
3. Press 1 or A/B to move this to the VFO B area (while still locked)
3a. Note that turning the VFO B knob does not adjust the VFO B
I should also state another good quick way to just lock VFO B is to hold
1 to activate B SET mode. Your VFO A display will now say b SEt. Now
you can hold the RATE button to activate the LOCK feature. Because
you're in 'b SEt' mode this LOCK will act upon the VFO B area. Tap A/B
or hold B SET

Strange operation here... AGC-S seems to work as it should and AGC-F as
expected but if I turn AGC off my rig does silent. I'm still able to

AGC Pulse = Normal
AGC

can define the gain that is added when each filter kicks in.

I don't see what you're talking about here at all.. Honestly looking at
that picture I see this thing as optimized for placement on the right
side of the K3. That gives you easier access to the select knob and the
buttons along the right side. Hell if all else fails you can set the
thing on top
I've been told to look in the 600 to 800 price range...

Not saying I'd do it. (and I'm not with the 8 filters I have in my
