Unfortunately, there is no RF Gain control on the Argosy receivers.  BUT...
there is a classic article by Cornell Drentea, WB3JAO (now KW7CD),
"Upgrading the Ten-Tec Argosy" from Ham Radio, Nov 1986 that addresses the
"pop" in this thread.  See page 43 "improving audio AGC charactersitics",
and page 44, "rf gain control".
