What is the advice for setting the level for data modes? At the moment I
have to set the input so that the first bar of "ALC" barely flickers on if I
am to limit the output to what I have set with the power control. Following
the previous advice by Lyle of setting it so that 4 or 5 bars are showing
steady, I get nearly double the requested output on a pure tone. The
calibration is perfect on CW.
