[Elecraft] K3S AGC action in CW

That was the first thing I did (including reading and rereading the manual) however changing the settings didn´t affect the AGC action in CW. The AGC settings are identical in all modes (default) therefore I would expect identical behavior in all modes. And in fact it does EXCEPT for CW. No matter whether AGC is set to fast or slow in CW it stays slow.

There are numerous AGC adjustments available in the CONFIG menu. You can probably find something to suit you there.
