[ICOM] IC-756

You need a lot more audio input at the ACC socket than at the microphone
socket.

I know the Tiger Electronics Signal Link unit has a special unit designed
just for the ACC sockets of ICOM 756 type radios because of this.

The regular "microphone" type Signal Link will only drive the ACC socket on 
a 756 to
around 3 or 4 watts - more audio is required and the Signal Link "Plus"
supplies the extra oomph.

The IC706 is a different radio with different levels.

Clif,
Dunno what to say. I have full output using the mic
connector but very little on the ACC. Same Radio
