Hi all,

I may have been asleep at the switch (again) and missed if anyone 
mentioned a similar AGC pop fix for the Omni Ds. My Omni-C really
has quite an ear stabber with a strong incoming signal. If it's 599+
I can pull out the RF knob to attenuate and that usually takes care
of it, but that is not a good solution for the mid-range.

73,
