[Elecraft] Pumping with AGC

Guy, K2AV, said,



"Make sure in Config Menu you have AGC PLS nor."



This is the probably the single best suggestion of all other than 
riding the RF gain.  Most prevalent and especially during contests are 
key clicks - hard keying - which extend at times several kHz fore and 
aft of the carrier freq.  If AGC PLS is set to "OFF" the key clicks 
will surely affect the AGC.  In my opinion, the K3 handles this 
situation better than any other rig I've used - which is many.  Again, 
make sure AGC PLS is "nor."  I have no troubles, even on the topband 
with preamp on, with AGC pumping and a 200 Hz filter.
