[Elecraft] AGC Threshold voltage?

Hello Tim,

I had the same experience. Mine was max 3.78V but it seems nothing to worry
about. I do agree that the given figures and the real ones don't give the
right feeling. I was worried as well. It would haven been "better" to have
the real figures somewhere midway the lower and maximum limits to give a
proper feeling of being normal.

The overall receiver gain  of the K2 I just built (serial number 4993) seems
low as compared with my older serial number 315 K2.

The max AGC threshold voltage I can get is 3.82 volts. (3.8 is what is
called for in alignment and Test Part I), but the troubleshooting section
says you can increase the voltage to increase the overall no-signal IF gain
and that a typical setting might be 3.9 volts.  Mine is maxed out at 3.8...
does this sound correct?

Thanks
