Still, top o' the line receivers like the K2 feature I.F. AGC that is far more versatile than the receivers with those huge S-meters. And maybe the piddlin' little bargraph puts the real value of an "S" reading in perspective <G>. Ron AC7AC -------------------------- Yea, I have 2 rigs, the K2 and the TS-830s. I'm not sure which I like better but for now I've been on the 830 most of the time. After last night's QSOs in which I was just struggling to copy signals, I'm about ready to switch back to the K2 for a while. Bar-graph S-meters, yuck! I hear you about putting the real value of an "S" reading in perspective, but I still want to watch that meter move! I'm still wondering how hard it would be to hook that LDG meter up to the K2 to give me a real analog S-meter! One of the things I've noticed about the K2's AGC is that it doesn't seem to boost gain as high as my 830s. In other words, it will allow background noise to remain in the background. I need to spend some more time under the cans with both rigs to get a better long-term feel for them. - Keith KD1E - - K2 5411 - _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
