Because the ALC meter is related to other things besides just power level like audio level input. ALC is a protection circuitĀ ALC overshoot is a common problem (and not good for electrical components) And if you can get 90W without ALC why push it? I just did this on my old IC-706MKIIG and can

nothi.g more nothing less, it just indicates that any deflection in the ALC zone is ok. And that is contrary to the beliefs some specialists here state. I believe the manufacturer and the manuals more. On Fri, 14 Jun 2019, 13:56 Tom M0LTE, wrote: > How is this any more complicated than set

Folks, ALC is a form of non-linear distortion of the signal being transmitted (compression). Although the WSJT-X suite is basically single-tone modulation, the effects of ALC action will be minimal. ALC (or the lack of it) is required for the linear soundcard modes like PSK31 where the

How is this any more complicated than set rig TX power to 100%, connect a dummy load, then reduce audio drive level so power meter reads less than 100% in the middle of the passband? Tom M0LTE On Fri, 14 Jun 2019 at 07:39, Roeland Jansen wrote: > "However, the action of ALC meter depends on

"However, the action of ALC meter depends on balance between the modulation level setting of your transceiver and the audio output level of your PC. Please adjust them with seeing the ALC meter. As you already know, if the ALC meter indicates within the ALC zone, there is no problem. Best
