To "Tom" , wherever you are--
I actually own a K3, PW-1 and SteppIR and have used them together. I was
involved in the beta testing of the negative ALC mod and if you have any
questions regarding my experiences please contact me off group.

Hi Tom,
The K3 should not be used as an exciter for the PW1 unless the polarity of
its external ALC input has been changed from positive-going (original) to
negative-going (range 0 to -4V). Failure to heed this warning will result
in
extensive damage to the PW1, necessitating costly repairs (as much as
$1800!)
