[Amps] PW1 and Quadra voltage problems

[Joe Barnes]

I have been told recently that both the Icom and Yaesu solid state amps that are out now are pretty critical when it comes to their supplied voltage. I was told that if you have anything over 220 volts you are risking catastrophic failure ( letting the smoke out of key parts ) rendering the amps nothing more than nice door stops. I was told that a buck buster transformer is the cure for this, any input? Thank you, Joe N4JBK
