I am trying to operate AFSK on 15m in the ARRL RU contest. I have 2 contacts in 
the last 2 hours. I am by no means a big gun, but I am usually better than 
this. Lineup is K3-KPA500-KAT-500. No problems on receive. Drive is set to 
produce about 350 watts from the KPA-500. SWR is below 1.5. As far as I can 
tell, baud rate, and shift are okay. I don’t think I am reversed. I know my 
signal is getting out, because I get a lot of AGN AGN. What disturbs me is that 
my ALC indication is rapidly jumping between 2 to 5 bars. This is not the 4 
solid and 5 flickering. Power out on the KPA500 jumps between 300 and 400 
watts. If anyone has a suggestion to get me back in the fray, I would be most 
grateful.
