I think we have already heard from Eric on the subject of ALC. I don't use it for the reasons he gave, but some people do, and I believe he has said that it will be addressed. > > BTW, I hope the KPA800/1600 will either provide negative going ALC as an option or have a built-in fast acting attenuator to obviate the need for external power control if they want a broader audience than K3 owners ;-) > > 73, > Larry N8LP > > > > KK7P re W4TV: > >Please be assured that we appreciate your thoughtful and constructive > comments on the K3. > > I strongly second that Lyle...I only wish Joe had > been one of your beta testers because of the quality of > his suggestions.
