Dave, That reference to a closed loop ALC with the K60XV applies only to the low power transverter outputs of the K60XV. It will not modify the ALC action for the normal HF outputs.
Your lack of power control on 40 meter SSB is quite another matter. It could possibly be an oscillation occurring near 40 meters. The KPA100UPKT upgrade was developed because of an oscillation that could occur at 40 meters, so you may want to consider adding that upgrade as a first course of action. You could have a problem with the ALC on the KSB2 board, but I would think it would show up on other bands if that were the source of your strange behavior. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > Hello all. > > On the first page of the K60XV manual says: "...
