[Fox_tango] FT-101EE USB Modulation Problem

Last year I added the International Radio Inc. WARC Bands kit to my 1978
FT-101EE. All was fine and normal after the mod was complete. Later I added
a properly functioning and aligned PB-1534 RF processor board with no
installment goof ups and then problems began on 17 and 12 meters. What's
happening is I'm getting an approximate 100 watts out at 280 mils in the
CW/TUNE position but only approximately 30 watts out at 100 mils on USB
phone. Also when I modulate in USB the ALC swings way left out of range,
even with the mic gain cranked way back to 2 or less. This excessive swing
ALC happens whether the RF processor is on or off.
Any ideas out there amongst the people in the know?
