[Elecraft] K3 ALC meter

2015-03-03 Thread Chris Meagher
Thanks Don for the explanation of what the ALC indicates.
I was winding it right back to one bar on digi, now I know how to set
things correctly
(for both digi and phone)

Issue has been resolved. After digging deeper into my settings I found that I
had somehow turned the bias on. Upon turning this off and setting the mic
gain to High I immediately had what appears to be normal ALC indication. I
suspect this happens when you operate mostly CW and data modes...

 Bob,

 I thought I explained that the K3 ALC meter is like a VU meter for the
 first 4 bars - the ALC indication starts at the 5th bar.

Interesting, good info. Been on this list for 3 years or more
and have never seen this.
Maybe it´s in the manual or maybe it´s been on the list but if
so I´ve missed it.
