[Elecraft] SSB output with new firmware

[Don Ehrlich]

Ian et al,

I did the same thing but found out later that my SSB audio sounded a little 
"gravelly" as if I was overdriving early stages of the mic audio amplifier.
This was true even with no bars of ALC showing and with both my MH2 mic and 
another backup microphone.

After a lot of tests and trials I finally discovered the problem disappeared 
when I set CONFIG.TXG VCE back to 0 db which seemed to make little 
difference in my ssb power output anyway.  So 0 db is where I shall leave 
that setting.
