No, the AGC has no effect one way or the other. So far it seems reducing the audio level below about 9 o'clock or reducing the RF gain below about 1 o'clock or increasing MON above about 35 significantly reduces the thumping on both K3's here.
As I said earlier it is not a major issue, but would be nice to eliminate. The three conditions found so far to eliminate the thumping are not practical from an operating point of view. Maybe I don't have something set up properly? 73, N2TK, Tony -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Joe Planisky Sent: Thursday, June 25, 2009 3:29 PM To: Toby Pennington Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 QSK Does turning off AGC have any effect on the thumping? 73 -- Joe KB8AP On Jun 25, 2009, at 10:27 AM, Toby Pennington wrote: > NO, this is not what is going on.
