[Elecraft] K3 and the VL-1000 with no ALC connection

[Art Nienhouse]

/*I have two solid state amps I drive using a K3 a KPA500 and a 15 year 
old VL-1000 Quadra I do not use the ALC connection to the Quadra it will 
walk back the out put until there is hardly any amplification.

It works just fine with only the PTT connection,  ACC to band data on 
the VL-1000 for band changing and a ground strap.
