AGC settings are programmable through the menu on the K3.    I have already 
programmed my PF keys to allow for NOR/SOFT AGC and hang time.  My F and S 
settings are nowhere near the factory defaults.  Both are programmed as slow 
as possible through the menu.

OTOH, I could see where someone might want multiple choices by selection of 
the numerical keypad.  One possibility would be to utilize the 0-9 keys to 
select one of up to 10 saved AGC settings per mode.  For example, within 2 
seconds of selecting S or F, the user could then press keys 0-9 to recall a 
saved AGC setting.  If no 0-9 key is entered after the F-S toggle, it simply 
goes to the last value entered (or to the default value in the alternative).

Oh sure, easy for me to say.  I have no idea how much time would be burned 
up by Lyle and Wayne on this idea.  But at least on the surface, it seems 
viable.
