Interesting. Many of us have wanted just the opposite. The ability to
hold off AGC action until even high levels than the THR value allows
now. Perhaps in the future....

I like to listen to a receiver with the rf gain set to just below

it is switched on.
My K3 is srl 46xx and the only way I get the quiet background I desire
is to turn the AGC off. This necessitates having the AF limiter turned
on to save my ears and hopefully the speaker output chip.
I've played around with various AGC settings and in particular the
AGC THR - which if it would go 2 or 3 points lower would appear to
address the problem.
Anyway, to save a thousand words, this recording sets the scene

- made from Main Rx on 3670khz with 2.8khz filter passband set to
Normal, NR and NB Off.
Sub Rx is identical in performance in this respect.
In all other respects that I use it the K3 is a stunner.
