[Elecraft] K3 power output on SSB

[ab2tc]

I will do the gain calibration again when I get home. I have done this
several times in the past without improvement, but not terribly recently.
Maybe there is a relatively recent firmware improvement in this area? Would
it be possible to change the firmware to not reset the ALC when doing a band
change without transmitting on the other band? I have a habit of using the
A/B button to take a quick peek on 10m, then coming back if there is nothing
there.
