You do not need ALC with some of the latest rigs as driver. If a linear
needs,say, 50 watts  you just program the output to 50 watts in the menu and
thats it. Any comments?

Yes. You sometimes get the dreaded transient spike at initial TX, regardless
of the power setting in the menu - e.g the IC706.
