There was another Sprint practice on Friday night. Once again there were multiple loud stations calling.
This time results were very good with AGC off. I had the two K3's set up with headphones connected to the SPEAKER outputs, so I was able to foil the AF limiter by running the AF gain at a lower level. I put back to back power diodes across the 8 ohm headphones, and I could hear them give just a gentle little fuzz to the very loudest signals, nothing like the raucous created in the K3's AF limiter. Just raise the threshold on that limiter, or provide a way to turn it off, and the K3 will be a first-class cw pileup rig, with agc off.
