Is that 300W out RMS or peak? If it's RMS, you're really pushing it HARD!
If it's peak reading meter, you're probably still pushing it. If it's LED's
then maybe you have a concern. (I can't recall if the Herc II has the LED PO
o rnot - and even if it does, you should check it against a known accurate
PO meter. Just a thought.

Subject: Re: [TenTec] OmniVI Plus Over Drive Amp
Think I got it now. Porcessor OFF.
Adjust Mic gain untill ALC lights on peaks.
Turn on Processor Switch Meter to Processor speak into mic untill meter in
HEAVY in Black Area.
Settings
are completely Different from where I had it. Is this the Best DX
punch I can get? How can I tweak settings better for a better punch
before I start flat toping the audio or sound distorted?
Still OVERDRIVE light on Hercules II still lights up 300 watts plus out.
Power does not go into Red area. I have to back Mic gain down to 75Watt
peaks so OVERDRIVE does not light. My conclusion is to ignore this
condition. Is this OVERDRIVE light too sensitive and needs adjustment or
what do I need to do?
Keep The Faith, Jim K9TF/WA9YSD
