Anyone who uses a K2/100 with a linear needs to know that the K2 ALC does not
kick in if PTT is used and the K2 display is in the RF mode.  This can cause
the input to the linear to be overdriven.  This condition can also cause the
K2 output not to be linear.  It is necessary to put the K2 in ALC mode to
activate the ALC in PTT.  Once the ALC has been activated, it can be changed back
to the RF mode.  If the K2 display is in the RF mode when using PTT, it is
necessary to access the ALC mode each time the sideband or band is changed.  Roy
