[TenTec] Question about Mike for OMNI V and Corsair II

[WA3FIY]

If the ALC light is lighting on voice peaks and if the power 
control is set for 95 watts CW/TUNE on both rigs, then both  
are transmitting the same PEP.   The different meter readings 
could be caused by differences in meter circuit response to 
the SSB signal.
