[ICOM] PW-1 problem

[htankin at comcast.net]

Interesting....this manual is different than the one that came with my PW-1 (version 2).  My manual does not have the diagram depicting the separation cable with a ground wire or place for attachement on the chassis. Also my PW-1 separation cable does not have the attached ground wire. I wonder if the manual you linked to is for the original or version 1 PW-1.
