[Elecraft] K3 Feature request

Now that the K144XV is available and a lot of us are planning to use it to drive microwave transverters, it would be really nice if there was some way to easily adjust IF gain. I know there was a gain change after 3.97 so it appears this is available in the firmware. Is there a way that along with RF freq, IF freq and offset offered in the XV config that there could be a gain per band setting added? When you add a transverters, most times the transverter has a fair amount of conversion gain and having the S-meter sit at S5 with noise doesn't help dynamic range. For eme'ers, we typically have lots of gain in preamps that drives the S-meter up. Using the ATT works but it's either in or out, nothing in between.

Just a thought.
