Power supply for
LINEAR AMPLIFIER (50 MHz, VHF, UHF and 1.2 GHz)
Connect an external 50 MHz/ VHF/ UHF/ 1.2 GHz power amplifier control cable to the EXT.CONT connector (1 male EXT.CONT connector
Note: The TX/RX control method differs, depending on external amplifier models. Most amplifiers enter the TX mode when the control terminal is grounded. For those amplifiers, connect the metal cover of the EXT.CONT connector to the GND terminal of the amplifier and connect pin 2 (50 MHz), pin 6 (144 MHz), pin 1 (430/ 440 MHz), or pin 4 (1.2 GHz) of the connector to the control terminal of the amplifier.
