[TenTec] Omni D & AL 811

[<hdmc38@bellsouth.net>]

I have just aquired an Omni D and would like to run it with my Ameritron 
AL-811.Can I just connect the ext T/R switch to the amp keying relay or do I 
need some sort of buffer device?My IC-718 keys up the amp with an external 
relay on the din plug or through a foot switch.I'm told the relay in the 718 
wont handle the load of the amp.Any problems like this with the omni D or can I 
just hook them up?Thanks for all your time.
