INDICATION
Po
Indicates the relative RF output power in %.
SWR
Indicates the SWR on the transmission
line.
ALC
Indicates the ALC level. When the meter
movement shows the input signal level ex-
ceeds the allowable level, the ALC limits
the RF power. In such cases, reduce the
MIC gain setting (see p. 38) in the quick
set mode.

speech compressor is in use.
In addition, the transceiver can display the multi-func-
tion meter in the graphic display, which displays all
