My K3S does exactly that same thing when I try to set the ALC on FT8.  Four
solid and the 5th flickering takes a very fine touch.  Spot on for a while.
Then three solid bars, then 6 or 7 bars.  Way too sensitive for the sweet
spot.

K3 original - ALC erratic

Noticeable on digital mode(s?) (FT8).  The ALC  - set at 4 solid and 5th
flashing - is far more critical than I remember. Seems like I could easily
set it exactly where I wanted it and it would stay there.  Now not so.
Just wondering what can affect the adjustment to where it will drop to 2
bars sometimes and the small change of the "mic" gain will make it higher
than wanted.  Not sure it is a continuous condition.  Just far more critical
than usual.

Thanks, Jim KG0KP
