[Elecraft] Free DV (digital voice as reported in QST-Aprilissue)

[Richard Fjeld]

Maybe I need an updated manual??  I do not find that in my manual, else I am overlooking it.  'Data modes' in my manual takes me to page 31.

Isn't it better to be on the 'lean' side than the 'strong' side for ALC in data modes?

I would like to know more about the K3 'power hunting'. 

Rich, n0ce

  Since this is just another digital mode, why would you not set the K3 
  ALC indication as specified for other digital modes.  4 bars on the ALC 
  meter with the 5th bar flickering.

  If you do not do it that way, the K3 will "power hunt" and you will not 
  have consistent power output.
  Bring the audio up as indicated in the digital operation section of the 
  K3 manual and set the power knob for the desired power output.
