Looking through the PowerSDR CAT command reference doc and not seeing commands to do the equivalent of right clicking on the AGC Gain button (Auto/Manual). Are there such commands? Maybe they are there and I just don't understand the wording.

What right-click button are you talking about?
There's a pulldown on the main page for Thetis. You looking somewhere else?

See this post: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3861&p=18272&hilit=CAT#p18272

So it's coming, or maybe it's already here, not sure. Things are moving so fast it can be hard to keep up.

The so-called version 3 CAT command reference is so hopelessly out of date. There are dozens and dozens of new commands that have been added since it was published in 2014.

The catstructs.xml file that lives in the same directory as thetis.exe is 100% up to date, but it can be hard to search and sometimes hard to derive functionality from it. You should look there, first.

It would be nice if someone sat down and created "Thetis CAT Command Reference Guide 1.0", but it's a ton of work and I'm not volunteering, having way to many projects of my own going at this time

I just tested ZZZQ and ZZZR in 21k9(rc2-b) and they do turn on/off Auto AGC for RX1 and RX2 respectively.

Poor choice of words on my part. Should have said AGC Gain slider

Thanks for responding and testing,

Well .... I have often heard that if you want something done, give it to the busiest guy. Can't think of anyone more qualified! Thanks for the link.

I don't see an AGC gain slider.
Can you post a snapshot of what control you are referring to?

I don't see an AGC gain slider.

Thetis manual 4.1.6 Gain Group: AGC Gain

Looks like it might be

ZZAR

ZZZQ1 and ZZZQ0 tested in 21k9RC3 and work as expected to turn auto AGC gain on and off.
