[Elecraft] K3 in CQ WPX CW

[KM0O]

Sometimes I don't want a flat response curve. The higher slope values tend to
compress signals together and makes it difficult to separate them in a
pileup on the basis of strength as experienced as audio. Sometimes it helps
if stronger signals sound louder.

I would like to see a way to store different AGC setups so I can recall them
at the tap of a button when the particular demands of contest conditions
change (maybe using the "message" buttons). Or is this already a K3
capability?
