[Elecraft] any one use a KX3 for the RTTY contest?

[Brian Alsop]

Close spacing--like 300 170Hz shift signals between 14075 and 14.110 
during RTTY tests?

The biggest problem becomes AGC generated clicks.  Impractical to turn 
off AGC and ride RF/AF gains.

I wonder if any work has been done on optimizing AGC characteristics for 
RTTY type sigs?
