Hi all, This may have been suggested before, as I recall there was a thread on additional uses for the P3 display, but I haven't been able to find it in a search.
What I would very much like, is that the AGC curve would be displayed on the P3 screen: on the horizontal axis the input signal in dB or S points; on the vertical axis the output signal. The AGC curve could then either be the actual curve, or a modelled version showing at the least the four important areas (horizontal part on the left, then the area with 1:1 slope, then the area in which AGC slope can be influenced by adjusting CONFIG:AGC SLP and finally the hardware AGC area). If the currently received signal would be displayed on the horizontal and vertical axes (maybe with a 'drop line' up to the displayed AGC curve and another going left to the vertical axis), it would become very visible what changing PRE, ATT, RF Gain or the various AGC config settings do to an actual input signal condition. E.g., one would see how the difference between a signal and the noise would increase on the output axis when reducing RF Gain, or when increasing the steepness of the AGC slope. This could also help in explaining what really happens, in case the "the K3 is a noisy receiver" thread comes round again... I'm curious whether I'm the only one wishing for this addition, and whether this idea is at all possible, given the P3's available processing power... 73, Frank PA4N ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
