[Icom] Interfacing AL-80B with IC706MKIIg

[gary nichols]

Hi Tony, if you operate the low bands at all using separate receive antennas
I would highly recommend taking a look at my "Receive Antenna Switch with
Linear Amplifier keying relay" at http://JohnJeanAntiqueRadio.com/gary.htm
It requires only grounding of 1.5ma of keying current from your rigs T/R
line, and will protect the front end from RF damage when using aux receive
antennas...de gary, kd9sv
