I went to bed Saturday night after staying up 30
minutes late to complete my K3. I sent an email to
[hidden email] just before bed.
I woke up, cleaned up, turned on the computer and an
answer was waiting for me. (Sunday morning !!).
The radio is an absolute dream and here is why.
On my other radios, the AGC is either opressive or
off, no in between. When you decrease the RF gain, it
may as well be the AF gain because everything goes
away, noise and signal, usually signal in greater
proportion to the noise.
The K3 RF gain and AGC works like my OMNI VI+,
properly. And of course, it is not fixed. ;-)

Be sure to clip all the longish leads on the Ksyn3
board, view with magnification and light before and
after installing the board. I had one nearly invisible
relay lead that I clipped but it did not fall away.
The calibration sequence fails when it gets to the
lead that is touching the nearby shield.
