504.0. "Kenwood 690 ALC meter ?" by HOTLNE::SILVESTRI () Tue May 20 1997 12:28

    
    
           I need some help with the operation of an ALC meter
    on a Kenwood TS690. Can anyone explain how it works. The
    manual doesn't explain it very well at all. If you have
    one of these rigs, maybe we can talk and compare notes.
    I do like it very much, but I'm not clear on the ALC and
    think there may be a problem with it. 
    
    
                                        Thanks, paul

	If the 690 is similar to the 430, the ALC should only kick up on voice peaks on ssb. I think there is a point at around 2/3 scale on the meter that voice peaks should not exceed. IT is frequency sensitive. I can check my manual tonight if you think it will help more. 73, ERIC K1NUN
