[Elecraft] TS520S and KPA500/KAT500

[Don Wilhelm]

The Elecraft transceivers control power differently than all other 
amateur transceivers, so methods that work with others do not 
necessarily work with Elecraft gear.
Set the audio level correctly first and you will have no problem.  For 
soundcard data modes (I don't care which one), set the audio so you have 
4 bars solid on the ALC meter and the 5th bar flashing.  That is the "NO 
ALC" point.  Set the power with the power knob.
See the article on my website www.w3fpr.com.
