As a general practice, most do not recommend using ALC from the amp to
the transceiver. ALC is not a "compression" mode and should not be
used as such. The ALC performance in modern transceivers will usually
be superior in performance to the voltage derived in the amp and then
processed by the transceiver to control drive power.
The amp should have adequate safeguards designed in to prevent overdrive
and alert the operator of such occurrence.

I have asked on and off about ALC over the past few months, and I think I want
to use ALC as a safeguard to amp overdriving as an error, not as a way of
obtaining compression. That said-- is the K3 ALC input directly compatible
with the ALC from the ALS-1306?
i.e. Is anyone using ALC on an ALS-1306, and a K3? If so, did you just plug
the two together, or did you need to interface them in some way?
