[Elecraft] Does AGC level change effectiveness of KNB2?

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

The effectiveness of the noise blanker is affected by signal level.=20

In some cases on 80 meters, for example, I have gone from no action to =
full
blanking by switching the preamplifier ON!  Using a preamp on 80 is not
something one would normally do, so it was a surprise to listen to a lot =
of
impulse noise on that band that the Noise Blanker didn't touch - even in
"low threshold" position - and then hear the noise disappear and the =
signals
pop out nice and clear when I turned the preamp on.=20

So I suppose the AGC level could have a similar effect.=20
