Is it safe to say my very low input audio level was compensated by the KX3's power control loop to yield 5 watts out (the actual radio power setting)?

It's hard to shake my Icom digital interface habits.

Thanks.

John,
The manual states that you should keep the ALC bars in the not to exceed 5 range. This keeps distortion down. Power is controlled by other means. As the radio is not rated for 100% duty cycle for 10 Watts, I would recommend that you stay under 4 Watts for the digital modes if running barefoot.
