All one has to do is go to the CONFIG menus, select the parameter, and
tap Display and be told what the Default value is for that parameter.
It's easy. It takes less than a minute to do all of the AGC parameters.
That's pretty short.

Well, I must apologize, and take the flak for letting that neat piece
of information get past me. I still have to go find where that is laid
out and see what else I'm missing. I *did* go looking around for

The K3 has a lot of overall gain. This is necessary to provide
sufficient speaker output in operating locations with high ambient
noise levels.
But you can adjust the amount of gain, and shape it, to meet your needs.

Could you explain the MDS test in greater detail? My AFV (AGC-S, ATT
off, no sub reciever) value bounces all over between 18 and 62, with
most values in the mid 20's. Over a 5 minute period, it doesn't
stabilize. I don't know what that means.

I think the staff at Elecraft is overwhelmed with orders and business as
usual. I can understand the workload during this time of year, and I am
sure the engineering process skills will improve next year. I would bet
their growth is somewhat beyond what they had anticipated.

I just reread my message and I don't like the meaning of the content. I
meant to say that Elecraft is having such a successful year that they may be
a bit overwhelmed. The offerings of excellent equipment and attention to
