AGC Settings for K3 in pile ups

I don’t think there is a one AGC setting that covers all.

 

I am using these settings when working a pile up here on NA045.  My goal is to keep as many of the calling stations as I can at different levels.  This helps separate the calls so I can work the strongest, “loudest”, and move to the next.  For me this works great to keep the rate up but when it comes time to hunt for mults I smooth the AGC back a little.

 

 

AGC DCY Soft
AGC HLD .5
AGC PLS nor
AGC SLP 2

AGC THR 17
AGC F 120
AGC S 20

 

Working from an Island might be different than other locations.

I am looking at implementing the Cifton Labs z10000 in my K3

Looking at the Sept/Oct 2012 NCJ artical by N2QT
I am strongly considering adding it to my K3

what HRD wants in the second part of the screen
is not always simply your callsign again and your password for TQSL

But more precisely exactly everything that you see in your TQSL
after the first Hyphen

for example most ops have "theircallsign - Home"
in my case I have KG5VK - KG5VK for my primary certificate

so in the HRD upload screen
I place KG5VK then my LOTW password
then further down I place KG5VK and my TQSL password
where you may have anything after that first hyphen

double check what you have by using TQSL and manually signing an adif file
it will show you what you have after the Hyphen

I hope this helps someone !

PS spacing and case sensitive applies to what you enter !!!

cheers !
