This is all very interesting. ?I am operating with the Yaesu FTdx10. ?When on FT8 with WSJT X, I am able to adjust the ALC to wherever I wish it tore. ?Generally, I keep it below half but above 1/3 and that seems to be the best area. ?On the other hand, with vara HF I am not able to adjust the ALC very well. ?It just remains around 3/4 give or take no matter what I do. Hmmm!

I agree with Dave. My ft991a yaesu has never run digital (varaHF, FT8 etc) well at low alc. My sweet spot for stable PO has always been around 7 adjusted with digital gain! Using that for years. Anything less not optimal for this rig.
