[Meteor-Scatter] ** ICOM IC275 and AGC **

[Russ Pillsbury]

Hello Guy. I cannot answer your question about the IC275, but I do have a
hint.  If you set the AGC to fast and then reduce the RF gain until the S
meter reads s3 to s5 when listening to just noise, I think you would find
the receiver would work just fine for FSK441, without being able to turn the
AGC off.  I use this adjustment even with receivers which can have the agc
disabled (like my TS-2000).

Hope this helps,

73, Russ K2TXB
