We recommend that you use a linear amplifier with a specified input power of 100 watts or more. If you use an amplifier with
a specified drive level of less than 100 watts, adjust the IC-7610’s output power to the specified level before transmitting.
Otherwise the linear amplifier may be damaged.

WARNING!
•
The maximum signal level of the [SEND] jack is 16 V/0.5 A DC, and 250 V/200 mA with the “MOSFET” setting (p. 13-2).
Use an external unit if your non-Icom linear amplifier requires a control voltage and/or current greater than specified.
• The ALC input level must be in the range 0 to –4 V. The transceiver does not accept a positive voltage. Non-matched ALC
and RF power settings could overheat or damage the linear amplifier.
