Executive summary, intermittent connections in a trap vertical caused the ALC to go crazy.
I suddenly had bizarre behavior when adjusting my mike level for JT65. When trying to get the ALC to be 4 bars it was all over the place. It was flickering on and off and sometimes the tones were modulate at a rhythmical rate. Power level was pretty constant. I thought it might be RF getting back into the shack or the PC picking up RF or bizarre driver behavior. I thought it might have something to with the new inverted V antenna causing RF to get back in the shack. None of this was the problem. The R3 Vertical was doing. It's been up for a very long time and when I switch to the new antenna all the problems go away.
