  In preparation of ILC an operation of two superconducting cavities controlled by digital LLRF techniques at different gradients (16 MV/m, 24 MV/m) with flat flattops and a 6.4 mA beam was demonstrated, which is only possible by PkQL control (individual setting of driving power and loaded Q per cavity). The vector sum stabilities were ΔA/A = 0.009%rms and Δφ = 0.009°rms. Since in ILC the cavity gradient spread is large (31.5 MV/m±20%) the required range of loaded Q values is 3·106 to 107. High loaded Q operation with a 6.1 mA beam at 2·107 was demonstrated. The stabilities were ΔA/A = 0.008%rms and Δφ = 0.014°rms. Furthermore a near klystron operation within 5% of saturation was performed with a 6.2 mA beam. The stabilities were ΔA/A = 0.010%rms and Δφ = 0.009°rms.
