[VHFcontesting] FT-221

[Rick Stoneking]

I have an FT-221 that I want to use as the IF for a 903 transverter.  The radio has no direct control of output power (I need to have 2W output max) so I am hoping to use the ALC connector on the back to control the output power but I can not find any discussion of the ALC operation.  Does anybody know how I can use the ALC to reduce the radio's output power?  

Thanks,
Rick
