I have lots of noise as well and use a 80m vertically polarized loop. (The best nearly invisible antenna I could manage and keep the CCnR cops at bay.) Not being a contester and compete in the CW pile ups only when I'm one of a few, I've found Slow AGC at the fastest setting (40) to work the best. If I need something faster, I go to Fast AGC at a pretty slow setting. I seem to get the cleanest signal that way.
73, Gary W7TEA I live in a noisy environment (typical S-7) and have in the past complained about K3 audio. I was never sure what was going on but it just sounded rough and unpleasant. The hardware audio modifications I think helped a little and most certainly cleaned up the line-out IMD. ....
