Bob and all,

That is good advice, but what is missing is the fact that the "ALC" meter on the K3/K3S/KX3/KX2 indicates the onset of ALC at the 5th bar, so the 4 bars solid and the 5th bar flickering is the "NO ALC" point for those transceivers. The first 4 bars are there to assist you in adjusting the audio level. I don't know how many times we have to repeat that, but follow the instructions in the manual. If you need a more complete explanation, go to my website www.w3fpr.com and scroll the left column down to the bottom article - click on the link to get the full information.

If it power hunts, this is a clear indication that the audio level is not correct.  Be sure to set the level such that you have 4 bars solid on the ALC meter and the 5th bar flickering.   Now, with that said, this is not ALC, but is audio level.  For others to advise you and even the instructions in the software manuals, unless they have set up and operated an Elecraft radio, the topic of adjusting for no ALC is incorrect and thus DOES NOT apply to Elecraft radios.
