CONNECTING A NON-ICOM LINEAR AMPLIFIER
R WARNING:
•
Set the transceiver output power and linear ampli-
fier ALC output level referring to the linear amplifier
instruction manual. Be sure the linear amplifier key-
ing circuit control voltage is compatible with the IC-
703, before connecting to HSEND line (ACC cable).
fier ALC output level referring to the linear amplifier
instruction manual. Be sure the linear amplifier key-
ing circuit control voltage is compatible with the IC-
703, before connecting to HSEND line (ACC cable).
•
The ALC input level must be in the range 0 V to
–4 V, and the transceiver does not accept positive
voltage. Non-matched ALC and RF power settings
could cause a fire or damage the linear amplifier.

The specifications for the SEND relay are 16 V
DC 0.5 A. If this level is exceeded, a large external
relay must be used.
