You must be kidding! I operated 30 hours in the CQ 160 and never turned my AGC off even once. I was in the middle of the major storm cell that moved across the southeast with QRN SW of me Friday night and NE of me Saturday night. Somehow I still managed to make 1542 QSOs in 58 State/Prov and 68 countries with a total Score of 829,332 (probably 5th overall behind 3 stations in Maine and one on the Chesapeake shore). http://lists.contesting.com/pipermail/3830/2010-February/190837.html I really don't understand your comments. Would you mind sharing your callsign and results in the CQ 160 so we know you are not simply a troll? 73, Bill W4ZV -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Attenuator-and-RF-Gain-Settings-tp4503505p4504898.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
