I'm sorry, but IMHO, if you have to do this, you don't have a well-designed
receiver.
As far as I'm concerned, these super-duper DSP radios should be smarter than I
am and they should know when to switch the preamp in or out, when to switch the
attenuator in or out and how to proportion the AGC between hardware and DSP for
best IMD performance and so that SNR is maintained.
Arguably the best sounding SSB (and for a DSP radio, AM) receiver around in the
one in the TS 870. I *never* fiddle with the RF gain on mine, the AGC works
dandy and I can listen to it for hours (phones on) without fatigue.
