[Elecraft] K3: AGC Adjustment

I also wondered about that. The slope of a line (the ratio of vertical
to horizontal displacement) is flatter for lower values. But in the K3
a smaller SLP value means a steeper AGC curve (the AF output changes
more for a given change in RF signal). SLP=0 really means least AGC
action, not flattest AGC, so the manual description is correct.

>Question 1: AGC SLP: The manual reads wrong to me in the discussion pp 53.  Wouldn't a slope of zero keep signals from going up in volume more so than a slope of 10?  I think of a higher slope meaning faster audio increase as signals get stronger.
