DDutil does actually limit the Flex power level to a set value per band. If
you try to move the Flex Drive slider, it will fight right back to where DDutil
has been set on that band. I use this feature and it is an amp-saver for high
gain amps. As you know, Flex does not implement voltage-controlled ALC in its
hardware. Jim KJ2P
