Maintaining the peak RF output of a SSB transmitter at a relatively constant level requires a circuit called the:
automatic level control (ALC)
Automatic Level Control (ALC) in an SSB transmitter samples the RF output and feeds back a control voltage to earlier stages to adjust their gain, preventing overdriving the final amplifier and maintaining a more consistent peak output power.
