Thanks for the explanation. As you say, noise levels differ between bands and
over time E.g. 80m in Summer compared to Winter or HF versus 50MHz and
higher bands via a transverter. Does the AGC setting apply per band or does
it cover all bands?
AGC is AGC. It is not per band, it is per radio :-)
AGC also depends on mode, CW vs SSB bandwidths. Again, does it differ?
Use AGC OFF | FAST | SLOW
Most people prefer FAST for CW and SLOW for SSB.
If so there will be an awful lot of tweeking needed for all possible
combinations.
I do not know of a radio with per band AGC settings, or per season.
Most radios don't let you adjust the threshold or slope -- or the decay
rate of FAST and SLOW.
With the K3 we allow you to tailor the AGC; we don't require that you
tailor it.
