when the received signal strength varies by fading,
and so on.
The transceiver has two AGC characteristics, AUTO
and time constants FAST and SLOW.

D AGC OFF function

When receiving weak signals with adjacent strong
signals or noise, the AGC function may reduce the
sensitivity. In this situation, the AGC function should
be turned OFF.
