Could this be a menu item so we can enable/disable? It seems a bit confusing because of the display.

Good day,

I upgraded my firmware to v2.02 Friday (13th!) night and now notice the following:

Previously the CMP and ALC display option was not available in CW mode. Now it is. The ALC element of this display shows six units of "ALC" at any power level when keyed. I guess it isn't supposed to be that way.

I was caught out with this display when changing from 30M CW to 20M where the K3 was on SSB last time I used it, changed to CW and the CMP/ALC display stayed active instead of automatically reverting to SWR/RF. Had me wondering what was going on for a few seconds.

Doesn't make sense to have an irrelevant display option active.

Seems logical to me.  If you are using ALC to control your amp drive it might be
beneficial to see the rig's ALC action on CW.  I suspect without an amp ALC line
connected the ALC is telling you the rig is transmitting at the power you set it
at and not being controlled by another device.

That's what I think, but I could be wrong...
