Ameritron amplifiers are not equipped for full break in CW.  You can 
key the amplifier by connecting the N.O. RELAY on the back of your Omni-V
to the relay jack on the amplifier.  Use of the ALC line is not necessary.

The Omni-D can key the amplifier from the EXT T/R jack on the back
of the transceiver.
