KX3 ALC - bug?

[David Orman]

I've run into a few situations now where I'm setting up a new computer to
work digital modes with a KX3, and the ALC shows nothing. I'll keep
increasing output to insane levels, and nothing.

Turns out, the levels are too high already. Drop them down, and back in
business. This seems odd, I would expect to see the ALC meter pegged, not
empty, when input is too high.

Yes, there is a bug in the DSP code on my list to deal with.  It is
always safe to start with MIC GAIn = 0, then increase, rather than
starting high and decreasing.

Thank you for your careful observations, and letting us now.
