[Yaesu] FT990 ALC Problem (Add)

I did a more careful study of my ALC problem and I wanted to restate
it as follows:

I get NO movement of the meter when in the ALC position and
transmitting in USB. This is regardless of settings of mic gain or the
amount of processing added (when RF FSP is used)

The above applies to the 10 and 12 meter bands only.  Operations are
normal on all other bands  and I am able to adjust mic gain and
processing in accordance with the FT-990 manual.

I have no idea if this issue is actually affecting proper operation of
the transmitter or not... I have asked a couple of contacts about my
audio during QSO's  on these two bands and I have not been able to
solicit any negative comments.

So.. as I said before.. any constructive comments would be
appreciated.
