When CW started first character masked with RX signal with low level of sidetone , probably a part

Depending on the ratio between level of RX signal and level of Sidetone the first CW character masked(monitored signal) with RX signal. Usually I like to have minimum level of Sidetone  to keep concentration on RX, however such behavior   really disturbing. probably this is a part of the common AGC issue related  with AGC pop topic  https://community.flexradio.com/flexradio/topics/agc-pop  and very sharp ACG process. I would to say necessary to review AGC process to reach success story. I have a look many post here and  have a sum - AGC issue still open and is a part of the customer unsatisfaction.

This particular issue is in our bug tracker as issue #4473.  It is slated to be investigated for a future version of SmartSDR.  At this time I do not have any information as to when that might occur.

Thank you Tim for note, probably i am out of tracking with previous posts.
Nevertheless on AGC need to put attention.
