[Elecraft] K3 AGC Settings Tutorial

[AD6XY]

Thanks for the explanation. As you say, noise levels differ between bands and
over time E.g. 80m in Summer compared to Winter or HF versus 50MHz and
higher bands via a transverter. Does the AGC setting apply per band or does
it cover all bands?

AGC also depends on mode, CW vs SSB bandwidths. Again, does it differ?

If so there will be an awful lot of tweeking needed for all possible
combinations.
