Terk has a reasonable bandwidth stereo audio AGC box, the VR-1
``TV Volume Regulator'' that solves one problem I was having, of
getting an automatically correct record level when things turn on
when I'm not around.

RCA phono pair in and out, wall wart (I think 9v but it's out of
sight now).

J&R discounts it a little. I paid $40.

It works fine. It seems to leave alone things quieter than
some fraction of standard line level (so you don't get infinite
gain on silence) and adjust to a reasonable level for several dB
above what it wants to put out. There's no obvious AGC sound
to it. It just sort of comes out the right level.

You adjust the amplifier you feed its output into to get the volume
you want always.

Works for me. I haven't tested its hi-fi ness, but it's much
wider band than SW or MW recording needs.
