Stan, most if not all radio manuals indicate what the amplifier keying specs are of the radio.  They vary among different radios depending on if they are transistor keying or relay keying.  As a rule most newer radios can handle 12v at some moderate current but it is always best to consult the manual for exact spec's.

How much voltage will modern rigs tolerate on the keying circuit? I have 
an older amp that has a 12 volt relay. Will that fry the keying circuit 
of a modern rig?
