[ICOM] IC730 Finals

[Pete]

hi hi MP designation on a pair means matched pair ,meaning the transistors
operate very very closely as far
as loading and output match.....GREAT for linearity and pure signal as well
as ease on all of the components that feed the monsters(finals) and then
there is the antenna system.
Spend the extra money but get the best.All or most of the work is done for
you.VE6RBP   73
