Jim, Per Band Power Control has been in the firmware since MCU 1.99/DSP 1.76 (June 4, 2008). If you are using older firmware, you will have to upgrade - you should find a menu entry for CONFIG PWR SET - set the parameter to PER BAND.
The K3 does have ALC input provisions, It was positive going ALC which did not work with most amplifiers. There is a mod on the Elecraft website to change that to negative going ALC. Please observe the informational items about the use of ALC, it is NOT intended to be used as a power limiting mechanism, and driving an amplifier into ALC will create undesirable signal compression, distortion and splatter. 73, Don W3FPR 4CX250B wrote: > This may have been covered before, but I'd really like the K3 to allow > band-specific power settings.
