the tuner is not desensitized by the AGC to weak desired
stations below the narrow band threshold

When compared to the simple case of a single in-band sig-
nal we see that because of the presence of a strong out-of-
band signal AGC action has occurred earlier For the simple
case AGC started when V
above AGC started when V
achieves an early AGC when there are strong adjacent
channels that might cause IM

NARROW BAND AGC THRESHOLD ADJUSTMENT
Both the narrow band and wide band AGC thresholds are
user adjustable This allows the user to optimize the AGC
response to a given tuner Referring to Figure 5 when the
meter output exceeds 1V a comparator closes SW1 A sim-
plified circuit diagram of this comparator is shown in Figure
The 1K resistor in series with pin 8 allows for an upward
adjustment of the narrow band threshold This is accom-
plished by externally loading pin 8 with a resistor Figure 11
illustrates how this adjustment takes place
From Figure 11 it is apparent that loading the meter output
not only moves the narrow band threshold but also de-
creases the meter output for a given input
In general one chooses the narrow band threshold
based on what signal-to-noise compromise is considered
acceptable
