[Icom] Frozen Send relay - 756

Tue, 28 May 2002 15:45:51 -0400

No, but just stating what's in my manual as a comparison of what others
indicate are in their manual. I said no but have not really looked at the
relay in the 756 Pro II but have seen the relay in the 756 and 756 Pro and
can't see how they can be rated 2 amps; However with all the radio's
mentioned I have never used an outboard relay with an Acom 2000A or Alpha
87A Amp. I know what they draw and have sense enough not to try and key a
Heath 200 or 220 with this rig.

Hi, Jim
Looking at the size of the relay, do you think it can handle 2 Amp.?
Typo?
