Whereas it was written:   "The manufacturer says use 5 bars of ALC, end 
of story.  I don't buy that at all." (W3IP)

The manufacturer DOES NOT say use 5 bars of  ALC.   However, it does say 
use 4 bars of audio as displayed on the ALC scale and the 5th bar 
flickering.  This is per the writer of the ALC routine. This prevents 
power hunting.  The actual Automatic Level Control (ALC) starts AFTER 
the 5th bar.
