Hi all,
    I'm still trying to put my Clipperton L AMp into service here. I had
it repaired(shorted tube and burned rectifier diodes), but now I can get
the radio to key the t/r relay in the Amp. I checked the cord and it's
OK, so when I short the center and shield on the cord, the Amp goes into
transmit. I jumpered the cord to the proper pins in the radio (pin2-tx
ground to center and pin 3-ground-to shield) and nothing happens. It
sems the radio just doesn't complete the circuit.
    Yaesu tech support says the radio is supposed to take pin2 low to
ground. So, if that's true, how am I supposed to make this arrangement
work? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your help
