> Anyone have any ideas for an AGC independent S-meter? Here's what I've used for 40+ years: Ears -- I have never really understood the fascination with AGC and S-meters in ham radio for CW. For AM voice, sure, and maybe SSB when the frequency is clear, but when it comes to typical CW operation I don't use either. I could see where a certain amount of delayed AGC would be useful as an eardrum-saver, but the same effect can be had by a simple limiter. IMHO, anyway. 73 de Jim, N2EY ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.
