[TenTec] Orion AGC Slope

[K4IA at aol.com]

Orion I here.
 
AGC slope is a new concept to me and I can't find a good explanation of  what 
is going on.  Can someone point me in the right direction?
 
I do like the slower attack with the new AGC.  I thought the old  system made 
the radio sound very noisy and made it hard to copy weak signals.  The radio 
still sounds very noisy compared to my MarkV Field.
 
The NR is still no where near as good as 1.371  but it is  improved.  It is 
now mostly useless as opposed to totally useless.
