I need a COMP setting of around 20 to get the commanded 100W peak. With my K3 into a dummy load and looking with a scope it is apparent that the peak RF signal changes by around 50% over the range of the COMP control. This may be the effect of the ALC, but in a well designed system should not happen. The ALC should respond to peak not average. 73 Stewart G3RXQ > you are right! > with this method I find the same performance like you. > > Is a maximum power output of 45 Watt peak in SSB normal? > (mesured with a LP100) > Power with CW is showing 100W with the same instrument. > > > 73! de Werner OE9FWV _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
