Two problems:

1.) A 7% spike is still a 14% power increase.

2.) You can not accurately read the spike on a non-peak-storage 
device. A non-storage scope simply is not fast enough.

Less than a millisecond at the crest.

Redesigning the ALC and installing it in a surface mount rig would 
be difficult.
