I my be wrong Mike,
but I don't think the AF Limiter is active *IF* the AGC is active
my understanding is it is only active if AGC is *OFF*

Quote from pg 15 of K3 owners manual D10.pdf:
AGC off/on (when off, an AF limiter
is available; see CONFIG:AF LIM)

also pg 53:

AF LIM NOR (Advanced.) Adjustable AF output limiter for use when AGC is turned off. This
can protect your ears if a large signal appears. Signals or noise above the
threshold will sound highly distorted due to the limiting action, reminding you to back down the AF or RF gain. Typical settings for those who often turn AGC off
are 17 to 23; some experimentation will be required.

Hi Knut,

Sorry I cannot. I don't have that capability. I might be able to record
it on my iPhone.

I'm going to try to remedy it with EQ. I think it's bumping the AF
limiter providing the limiter is in the circuit with AGC on.

It just seemed to me that since rf gain cured it, AGC should too, so I
wouldn't have to turn RF down for one station and up for others. Gets
old after a while. And not talking about s9++++ signals either.

Thanks
Mike R

Hi,

Can you post an audio clip exhibiting the problem? It's very difficult
to help with just a verbal description of the problem. I have never
heard any pops or clicks from the K3 AGC. I know what it sounds like.
I use HDSDR with slow AGC setting with my Afedri SDR and it's terrible
on strong signals. The person currently in charge of HDSDR has
promised  to look at it.

I have a ongoing nuisance. On USB it seems high voices will pop/crack
just like if AGC was off and hitting the AF limiter. Reducing RF Gain
clears it up.
Turning agc threshold down has no effect.

Is there a agc setting that might correct this? I haven't tried slope
which is 15 (max).
