Low SWR allows full power for transmitting even when using the antenna tuner. The IC-PW1 - Icom IC-PW1 | Instruction Manual - Page 10
s System interconnections 1 or 2 Icom 100 W HF transceivers can be connected as exciters to the IC-PW1. Non-Icom transceivers can be used, however, band selection will not be synchronized for each exciter.
