Hi Monty,
I was just pointing out that the CX was the same connected to the amp or not. My K3 does put out in excess of 100 watts when ALC is turned off. I did adjust the ALC control on the amp. This had no result on the K3 output, i.e. 60 watts max ALC on, full output 100+ with ALC off. > From: mon...@mindspring.com > To: k...@arrl.net > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] ext ALC problem > Date: Thu, 28 May 2009 15:12:55 -0400 > > Howard - > > If you are not connected to the amplifier, what is controlling the external > ALC input to the K3?
