[ICOM] 756 Pro blown Ant 1 input

[Adam Farson]

Hi Larry,

In the IC-756Pro, fuse bulb DS111 (RF Unit) protects the RX-ANT input only.
It sounds as if the NC contacts of the ANT 1/2 selection relay (RL3, CTRL
Unit) is blown. The 756Pro must have taken a huge belt of RF to cause such
damage, as RL3 is 2 X Form C with both contact sets in parallel.

This is why I am delighted to let our club use their rigs at FD! We do FD as
Class 2F at our EOC.

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ

If I remembr correctly, there is a protection device in the ant input
circuit. I believe it is either a fuse or a small series bulb.
