Not only SSB. I have overshoot on CW.
This problem appears to be rig-specific. I just duplicated his test using
three wattmeters in series, together with a Bird 4273 RF sample. The sample
feeds a Tektronix SC504 oscilloscope. My wattmeters are the Alpha 4510,
LP-100, and Array PowerMaster. With the K3 set to 22 watts from the menu,
keyer to 30 WPM, I then sent a single "dit" on 40M CW into a 50-ohm Bird
TermaLine load.
Observation: I waited 30 seconds for the ALC to stabilize between each
successive "dit." All three wattmeters read between 22-23 watts in peak
mode. The oscilloscope showed no overshoot whatsoever. I have no mic to
plug into the K3 at the moment, so no SSB overshoot testing was performed.
