I would like to second this suggestion. Having a "medium" setting would be extremely helpful, especially in the case outlined by Ted. I found exactly the same issue as he has illustrated.

In the CQWW CW on 20m in the evening many of the Russian stations over the polar path had tremendous flutter on their signals. Found it was often easier to copy them with the AGC on "slow" instead of "fast". AGC is about the only "rough spot" I've found with my K3. And I've read all the write-ups, tried the various settings, played with the rf gain, etc. Guess I've sorta gotten use to it but believe there is still room for improvement. The CQWW experience lead me to this thought: What is the possiblity of having slow/medium/fast AGC settings for cw and separate s/m/f settings for ssb? Currently, for my hearing at least, if I adjust Fast for cw it's often too fast for ssb; if I adjust Slow for ssb it's too slow for cw. And Fast isn't always the best for cw nor is Slow always the best for ssb. 73, Ted W4NZ ______________________________________________________________ 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
