[Norton AntiSpam] [ICOM] AMP for 756 PRO

[AD5VJ Bob]

Thanks Cliff:

I had heard with some amps the Icoms need a special relay
or something.

I was considering the Ameritron AL-811 or the Heathkit
230.

Didn't know if there was any special consideration for
these models or not when it comes to a 756PRO.

 I just don't want to be stuck with something I am going
to have to modify or make shift if you know what I mean.

Code may be taking a back seat for now,
but the pioneering spirit that put the code
there in the first place is out front of it all.
