Bob, I have used 2 amps with my SDR1K, an old Icom IC-2KL and a Ameritron Al-1500. In both cases the key line is wired to the external control connector X2 using pins 7 and 15. Pin 7 is the preferred pin for amplifiers and pin 15 is ground. Note: You MUST enable pin 7 on the Setup/General/Options page. You should also set the X2 Delay. I have mine set at 30 msec. Pin 7 allows for sequential timing of the amplifier, ie, the amp keys first then the SDR, then when you unkey, the SDR unkeys followed by the amp. Saves from transmitting into nothing. The pinout is located on page 12 of the manual which you can download from the website. It is on the main page at the top. 73, Dale AA5XE Bob W5RG wrote:
