[Icom] 746/756 SEND Relay

Tue, 26 Mar 2002 12:31:21 -0500

New to the list, and my 746 hasn't even arrived yet, so
this has been some interesting and informative reading.
With any luck, my 746 will arrive tomorrow. I don't
currently own an amp, and I'm not sure if I will use one
with it or not. But, here's the question. In reading the
PDF file on the Ameritron 702 amplifier interface, it
sounds like it would be a safe way to go. Right, or
wrong ?  

Thanks... Mike K9MI
