[Icom] Driving Older Amps

Sat, 03 Apr 2004 17:29:52 -0500

A simple solution that I've used is that most newer HF tranceivers have a 
accessory socket on the rear that delivers something like 12 - 16 VDC on 
transmit, I use that to close an external 12 VDC relay from Rad Shack, that 
has worked fine for me.   No messy mods to hurt either radio or amp. I do 
this with my Hunter 2000C and a TS-690SAT...  73  Tim  K8WBL
