Hi Eduardo,
I think you've hit the problem. A DV signal takes up, say, 2 kHz but it really
takes it up. Even when the speaker is pausing, there is still a signal sort of

Since this is just another digital mode, why would you not set the K3
ALC indication as specified for other digital modes. 4 bars on the ALC
meter with the 5th bar flickering.
If you do not do it that way, the K3 will "power hunt" and you will not
have consistent power output.
Bring the audio
