K3: AGC mod

[Don Rasmussen]

Aki - I have noticed that the HAGC mod makes the AGC
THR seem to have more range and effect at the higher
values. I also now use my AGC in the OFF position for
CW, I enjoy the most energy in the audio and less of a
smoothing effect.

However for SSB and AM I require more of a smoothing
effect as if AGC THR is even lower than the lowest
available setup parameter, which I will be looking for
in the next firmware update.

This is all very low priority for me however because
the K3 is already better than anything I have ever
tried before. ;-)

Hello

I am one of happy K3 users. S/N 00060

I found annoying AGC action when operating CW with
2.8KHz filter
even if I configure AGC THR in config menu to highest
value.

Can we expect more improvement with AGC mod ?

I have already ordered CW rise time mod kit and AGC
mod kit though.

Thanks for your comment.
Although AGC OFF is a way to avoid annoying action my EAR does not prefer  
sudden
loud audio.  I will enjoy "unsoldering SMD parts" ,  Hi

Thanks
