[Elecraft] AGC threshold

[Dave Hachadorian]

Need threshold higher than 8, and Slope with a number less than 
zero, which translates to a steeper curve.

With such settings, AGC would be used for hardware protection and 
hearing protection only.  The linear part of the curve would be 
maximized.

Are there engineering reasons why the AGC threshold level can be 
set no
higher than 8?  KE7X suggests that this value, if increased, 
would lead
to better performance in receiving pileups, without having to 
turn off
the AGC altogether.
