Right on, Don. The amp must protect itself by itself and for itself. Like Overdrive, High SWR, Hi drain current, ad infinitum. Modern SS amplifiers all have this built in protection. Like many, I have never used ALC, being CW only, but I take care of drive power to protect the amplifier. de Joe, aa4nn
