if you have doubts invest in an ameritron ( MFJ?) 704, its an relay for
solid state rigs that keys the linear, needs no ext power, and has alc if you
choose to use it. ( I don't) about $30 or so, and works on most all rigs
tom N6AJR
Just wanted to solicit the list as to whether I will require an
intermediate keying relay between my "new" Omni VI+ and a QRO HF-2500DX
amp.
Amp manual states that the t/r relay should be capable of switching 12v@
80 ma. The OMNI op's manual indicates its to be used to switch low
voltage DC only but does not provide a current rating. Am I risking
damaging the Linear Control Relay in the radio by not using a isolation
relay? I'm a bit gun-shy from using other gear which utilize light duty
relays."
Thanks es 73

Kirb,
The 'amp energizing relay' in the OMNI-6+ can easily handle 12v@80ma.
