- I think you totally misunderstand AGC THRESHOLD as applied in the Orion. The RF gain control in the less modern receivers you refer to does much more than simply change, as a byproduct, AGC threshol

- This is true. It's certainly better to have a separate AGC threshold, as in Orion. Unfortunately, AGC Threshold control on Orion is an ergonomic disaster. It should have had a knob assigned to itself

- The crash of the Hindenburg was a disaster. The threshold control can be set up to be one button push away ... Not sure I understand why adjusting THRESHOLD should have any impact on S-Meter indicat

- That's exactly too much for me :-) I'm not sure either, just a though that it's position should be indicated in relation to signal levels presented on the S meter. Those 5-digit microvolts (with ~1 d
