Hi Gerry:

You can only use the SB-200 with the relay contacts in the MP.  The SB-200
keying line is -130Vdc (thats MINUS 130 Vdc). It can not be keyed with the
solid state line or the Data Connector signal.  You will hear the annoying
relay clatter.  I have modified an SB-200 to shift the -130V to +3.6v and then
the relay doesn't need to be used. Takes a bit of work but I prefer it to the
relay klunk.
