Mike,

Do you have CONFIG:AF LIM reduced from NOR 030 and MENU:RX EQ set to
boost high frequencies?

Let me add, I don't mind reducing rf gain more one on one BUT its aggravating 
after a while in a group to turn it up and down for one or two guys with high 
pitch voices.

Seems AGC should do that?

Once again, it's like the high pitch voice is activating th AF limiter or a 
similar sound. AGC fast or slow. AF limiter 30.
Signal around s7.
I run into this frequently on a 20m rag chew net.

Mike,

An added note - when experimenting with the AGC settings, do take heed of the 
information on how to evaluate the results of your changes - listen between 
pauses in the signal rather than listening to the noise on the band.  Listening 
to the noise level without an intermittent signal will lead you in the wrong 
direction.

Mike,

I don't know if it will help in your situation, but take a look at my webpage 
www.w3fpr.com article on "Noisy K3" for some guidance to setting the AGC 
parameters.  Yes, changing the slope may be helpful, but you will have to experiment a 
bit.

Turning the preamp off and perhaps the attenuator on may help as well.  Then 
too, if you are running with noise reduction turned on, that could create some 
'funny situations' that are similar to what you are hearing - try with NR 
turned off.

I have a ongoing nuisance.  On USB it seems high voices will pop/crack just 
like if AGC was off and hitting the AF limiter. Reducing RF Gain clears it up.
Turning agc threshold down has no effect.

Is there a agc setting that might correct this?  I haven't tried slope which is 
15 (max).

I get the qth list as daily digest and yahoo as individual email. It's much 
easier to respond on yahoo. I've posted to both.

Thanks
Mike R
