if you are enthusiastic about an IF AGC in the ubitx-- use a search engine (or look here in files) to find the Jackal schematic - it has an IF AGC circuit that could be employed, that seems to be derived from the hybrid cascode (W7ZOI) with less stages as I recall.?
I find with an audio filter and audio AGC the ubitx is a decent rig to do some casual HF.? But do explore circuits to your fancy.? Speaking of the hycas, I built one a few years ago - got distracted by our club build of v4 ubitx (that needed some effort to tame) - so I need to think through what band(s) I will deploy the hycas in a receiver.?
