[TenTec] Corsair II AGC

I've gotten messages from several people saying that their
CSII didn't "pop" on strong signals, which makes me wonder 
if there was a production mod or maybe some other explaination.

The schematic shows a 3.3K and a 10Meg resistor voltage divider
after the full wave AGC detector and before the charge capacitor.
I wonder whether varying the 3.3K resisitor allows the "pop" to be 
adjusted out on an individual radio.  I think I'll replace mine with a 
10K trimmer and see what happens.  

The "Ron Lee" schematic I have is essentially unreadable, so those
who requested a copy are out of luck.  

I'm also looking for the W3TS amp schematic but it remains in hiding.
