[Boatanchors] PACE MAKER QUESTION

[WQ9E at btsnetworks.net]

Bob,

From the subject line I was prepared to help you with a Johnson Pacemaker transmitter since I run one paired with a Johnson Thunderbolt amp and RME-6900. 

With a medical pacemaker, for obvious reasons the doctor and manufacturer are going to be very careful and conservative with their warnings to avoid any chance of failure.  The manufacturer MIGHT have additional information, you could also contact the league since I am sure this question has come up many times.  I wouldn't advise betting the life of a spouse on anecdotal data from a group of respondents.  

Risk manager mode off and back to ham radio :)
