I ran a 1010 for a while for CQP, only on SSB, so I can't comment on
delay time. A simple RCA to RCA connector from the K3 to the 1000 is all
that is needed to key the amp. You are correct that ALC should NOT be
used between the K3 and the amp. This is true of virtually ALL rigs and
amps. Using ALC to set power is a recipe for splatter and clicks.
