[ICOM] ICOM and Alinco

[Tom Norris]

Unless I am forgetting after so many years, I remember
the DX70 to have a 5 pin tuner connector on  the rear.
Back several years ago I was able to make the Alinco tuner
work with my first Icom 706, so I'm sure they will work
the other way round. I'd try to find the manuals on the
tuners and the particulars on the Alinco radio first though,
since there was something odd I had to do to get it to
work.
