Need threshold higher than 8, and Slope with a number less than zero, which translates to a steeper curve.
With such settings, AGC would be used for hardware protection and hearing protection only. The linear part of the curve would be maximized. Dave Hachadorian, K6LL Yuma, AZ -----Original Message----- From: Pete Smith Sent: Thursday, December 09, 2010 7:01 AM To: Elecraft List Subject: [Elecraft] AGC threshold Are there engineering reasons why the AGC threshold level can be set no higher than 8? KE7X suggests that this value, if increased, would lead to better performance in receiving pileups, without having to turn off the AGC altogether. -- 73, Pete N4ZR The World Contest Station Database, updated daily at www.conteststations.com The Reverse Beacon Network at http://reversebeacon.net, blog at reversebeacon.blogspot.com, spots at telnet.reversebeacon.net, port 7000 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
