That's true... if you were to connect the drake transceiver to a drake amplifier life would be good. Birds would sing, the sun would shine. Life is good.
But there is no standard as to how much, what flavor, or how much voltage or even if it should be positive or negative going on ALC. The ALC generated by an amplifier may as well be in Vulcan if the transceiver can't understand what to do with it. And while the engineers who included knew of its value, no one sat them down and decided on a standard. bottom line? Don't worry about the ALC mike, wb8vge On Feb 12, 2013, at 1:05 AM, Jim Shorney wrote: > On Mon, 11 Feb 2013 21:08:45 -0500, Robert Henry wrote: > >> Hi, Do not use ALC, 73 > > > Why not?
