Well, with my Corsair 1, I almost always run the receiver with the AGC off.
If the signal is *really* strong, sometimes I switch it on, but most of the
time I'll use the RF gain to adjust the loudness in my phones. I don't run
the AF all the way up, though.
This is one big advantage my Corsair has over my TR7--the AGC can be turned
off!
