Jim,
At P49Y, I have found it useful on CW to use an AGC slope setting that
reduces agc compression. That way you can use the RF gain control to help
manage the pileup. But I recommend keeping the AGC on so that you don't get
blasted by a very strong signal after you have been straining to pull out a
weak one with the af gain turned up.

Subject: [Elecraft] Best setup for DX pedition K3
I am looking for suggestion on the best receiver setup for our trip to
J6. I know we are going to have some pretty big pileups. I recall
reading about the VP6DX guys probably using no AGC and riding the RF
gain if my memory is correct.
Are there any other tweaks that might come in handy?
