In my K3 RF gain works as expected when AGC is off. Turning the knob so that S-meter shows S4 reduces the background noise dramatically.
With AGC on, RF Gain needs to be turned off much stronger for the same effect (S9+40). Is this just an abnormality on my K3 or is K3 programmed this way? It seems that RF Gain with AGC on acts mainly on the front-end but retains white noise generated in the latter stages. If this is true, it would l explain why K3 sounds noisy with AGC on, but not so with AGC off and RF gain adjusted as needed.
