We have about 60 K3 owners testing the K3's new AGC. I'm sure we'll
hear from some of them, but here's a summary of comments they've sent
to me so far:
- copy is much improved in dense pile-up conditions
- signals have more "clarity"
- QSB is more noticeable on weak signals (this is to be
expected on signals that are not activating AGC)
- the noise blanker has become more effective in some cases
(also expected; its effect is not being muted by AGC compression)
I'll be happy to send out additional copies of the new firmware. If
all goes well this should become a beta release next week.
