With mine I had to go to a solid state intermediate relay.
AES and others carry them. The relay contacts in the 756 series are a
tad light for keying most of the older amps.

Roger, did look into those, AES has a Heil foot switch
that would work double as a keying relay, but that foot
switch is not for me. Months back someone posted a
older ham hr on this grp that had some for sale, but i
dont remember his call, he may be a sk by now. A W7
call i think? Theres an up coming hamfest in the area
here in 2 weeks, i may look then.

cheers, steve.

\Go look up W8MIS, he makes the relay imbedded cables...It will plug in
your Icom and your amp and key with no damage...73 murray K5MDM RadioRanch

M, thanks, I will check out that link. That may
have been that post at one time.
Call doesn't sound familar, but its worth a checkup.

They also have the Icom and MFJ keying interface for amps as well.
(or did) That's where I purchased mine.

I keyed an old Henry 2K-4 and now an Alpha 76 with the Icom unit. I
used the MFJ with the old 751A out in the shop, although the 751 A
relay is heavy enough to key the 2K-4 by itself.

I sold the 751A and need to get the old HT-32 driving the Henry even
if I do have an HT-33B setting next to it.
