Hi,

I've noticed that my power output on 40 meters LSB is a lot higher than expected. I get four to five bars or more on the peaks in the ALC mode. I even got a high current reading last night and I then turned the power back from 12 watts to 10. I get 4 to five bars even at five watts. It didn't make much difference and I've found that I need to hold the mic further away. I switched to USB on 40 meters and it looks fine. It looks good on the higher USB frequencies also. I've noticed that it is around 2 to three bars on 80 meters LSB which is normal according to the manual.

I'm wondering if it could be a carrier balance adjustment? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Everything else appears normal. I've checked all solder connections on the SSB board several times and re-flowed the connections I considered suspect.

Thanks,
Gary, N7HTS
