Hi folks,
Since I had my Omni VI I've been a bit disappointed with the agc characteristic
- I guess I've become so used to my Corsair's "hang" system! I particularly
like the way the background noise on the Corsair doesn't lift during brief
pauses in speech, and I find it much less "wearing" on the ears :)
I spent this weekend modifying the Omni VI agc into a "hang" system. The
changes are straightforward, can easily be reversed, and the existing front
panel AGC switch functionality is retained.
I'm very pleased with the results. If anything it now out-performs the Corsair
because it remains fundamentally an IF-derived system and so responds more
quickly to the onset of large signals.
I know some folk love "hang agc" and some folk hate it, but if anyone is
interested I have posted full details of the modification at:
