Recently acquired an LDG tuner. Nice part.
I'm looking forward to the not having to twist knobs every
time I change frequency.
Ok, you're lazy.
It comes with an adapter cable for Icom radios, but it's a
4-pin Molex connector and the manual doesn't show what the
connections/signals are for the radio.
Anyone out there connect this tuner to an IC-761 already?
Buy or clone the LDG Icom interface cable. The IC-761 supports the
Icom AH-4 antenna tuna, so it should work:

Hmmm... why do you need an antenna tuner? Can't you build an antenna
that's close to 50 ohms? Or, are you like me and just hang any random
length of wire in the trees and hope for the best?
