As long as you're still reading suggestiosn on per-mode RX EQ for the 
future,
I think it'd be really fascinating to see RX EQ combined with AGC for 
data modes.

As Lyle KK7P points out here:

  " "The K3 blocking dynamic range is 20 to 30 dB better than PC-based 
SDRs."

Digimode programs suffer the same fate as PC-based SDR, and have reduced 
dynamic range.
Of course, you can use the K3's DSP and IF filters manually to block out 
QRM,
but it would be really neat if there were a way to ask the K3 apply AGC 
in bins
across the receive passband, instead of wholesale across the receive 
passband.
