Hi Gang, I would like to see a separate tutorial on the use of the DSP/NR/NB and especially AGC. I have read with interest the thread on this and try to understand the theory behind all this 'hang', 'decay', 'threshold', etc. I have an Orion II and was initially baffled by all the complexity of the settings. What finally worked for me was a section of their manual which listed typical settings for weak signal work and another for contesting. One gentleman listed why he wanted certain settings for different requirements and that was very educational for me. Even though I built a K2/100 with accessories (tip of the hat to W3FPR for helping with the heavy lifting) I am basically an appliance operator. A pilot by profession, I am used to checklists but also value thinking 'outside' the box. My current large appliance is a B777 so complexity is not overwhelming. There are so many gifted hams on this reflector that understand all the nuances of AGC/DSP etc; I would love to have a tutorial that lays out best settings for QRM/QRN, weak signal work, contesting, dxing. Not only the settings but the 'why' on the different hang, decay, threshold times. What say you? 73 Tom CX7TT/K6CT _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
