As a friend of mine puts it, the ALC controversy borders on being a religious issue.
No, it does not. It is science. ALC should NEVER be used to set the output power of a power amplifier, because doing so produces lots of distortion (splatter, clicks). ALC should be used ONLY to protect the power amp from damage in the event of problems in the antenna system or operator error.
