[AMPS] Icom 756

[JOHN BASILOTTO]

I have an Icom 756. I was using it with a Drake L4B. At first everything was
fine; after about 30 days the reed relay in the Icom froze stuck. The Icom
relay is rated at 16volts@2amps. The Drake amp has a 12 volt relay but has a
potential of 26volts with no load. Consider using an aux. relay; otherwise
you too may have to replace an Icom relay.
