I think the OPC-118 will actually feed back an ALC voltage to the 751A 
so the power control would be automatic as the AH2A controller has an 
ALC adjustment inside of it. BUT I am trying to remember the OPC-118 and 
the connections that were available inside and it may not have the ALC 
connection. Its been a long time now since I actually worked for Icom. 
Sounds like some nice vintage equipment you have there. Good station for 
anyone.
