Thanks for the feedback. Don't have an Amp, but my dualband antenna is limited in power on 2 meters and don't want to below out the matching unit on it.73 John AF5CC Sent via the Samsung Galaxy A10e, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone

If it does (Your amp tripping off ?) a 9 volt battery and a 50k or bigger potentiometer wired to the alc jack is a fix.Battery to pot, plus to ground, pot wiper to center of ALC jack.Use the pot to set output. Some radios generate full output, then find the internal pot setting, which is an ALC voltage.With the battery, the voltage is already there. Most radio need -1 to -4 volts.> On May 11, 2022, at 13:25, John Geiger <af5cc2 at gmail.com> wrote:> > Does the Icom 746 exhibit a brief, full power output spike at the> beginning of transmissions if you have the power scaled back to 25 or 30> watts, like some other radios do?
