[Hallicrafters] Using SX101A with Drake T4XB

I just got a great deal on the Drake Twins (R4B & T4XB). However, I have a Hallicrafters SX101A already and the Hallicrafters has much more pleasant audio than does the R4B. So I intend to hook it up to use the SX101A receiver when running AM.

The connections seem pretty straightforward.  I've pretty much worked out how to keep from accidentally feeding my transmitted signal directly into one of the receivers.  The Drake's internal switching seems quite sufficient for most things.  But this is the first time I've used a separate transmitter with the fancy mute and sidetone functions. Most of my experience has been with tranceivers.

Are their any hidden pitfalls I should be concerned about in using an SX101A with a T4XB?
