It IS in the software ALC... reflects the ALC's attempting (at about a
1-seconds rate) to 'stabilize the output at the requested power level...
Seems I recall there being a fairly simply remedy to this problem... at
least to remedy MOST, if not all, of it.
If I recall, it was the addition of a cap somewhere, but (unfortunately) I
don't recall where.
Double check the archives, or maybe someone will offer it up.

Interestingly, my TS850S does this too... it's a well known bug in the
TS850. The Kenwood problem is in the ALC circuitry, new rigs don't do
this... it develops over time.
I'm not familiar with the K2 circuit, but it sounds like it could be a
decoupling problem.

Sounds like both K2's I have had. 38xx and 44xx. The output jumps all over
the place. My amp does not like it either. When I posted about it, the
response I got was that is "normal".
