Unlike many other transceivers, the TS-870S exhibits low ALC overshoot at
low transmit output levels, particularly when the Drive/Mic level is set to
reflect very little ALC action.
On CW, I apply only enough drive to light a single meter segment and the
waveform is perfectly preserved. Same with SSB...increase Mic gain just
enough to slightly activate the ALC region and no more.
