[Elecraft] [K3] AGC settings

[William Evans]

FWIW: 
What I use on AGC varies from day to day and with varying conditions.  Right now my params are:
AGC DCY:  Soft
AGC HLD:  0.73
AGC PLS:  nor
AGC SLP:  014
AGC THR:  004
AGC - F:  140
AGC - S:  026

other params:
L - Mix - R:  Ab   b
AF LIM: 025
AF GAIN:  LO
RX EQ:  
         1 : +3 
         2: 0
         3: 0
         4: +1
         5: -2
         6: +1
         7: -2
         8: -16
TX EQ:  Flat (never tried to adjust that)

on 80 Meters, the AF gain is at 11 o'clock, and the RF gain is between 12 and 1 o'clock  (These vary with band.  160 and 80 are about like this, but the RF goes higher as I vary antennas and will end up being fully clockwise on 20 - 10 meters.)

Hope these help someone.  Tonight, the bands are quiet and the signals sound great and the "noise" or hiss is low with the above params.  I use AGC in the slow position for voice and fast or slow for CW (depending upon my mood!)
