RE: [amsat-bb] IC-910H converter protection

["Steve" <jepsen_st@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use a Ten Tec model 1210 2mtr to 10mtr transverter to my Yaesu FT1000MP HF
xcvr.(I only assembled the receiver section so it's actually a receive
converter)
This not only protects my down converter but the FT1000MP is a much better
receiver than most VHF/UHF all mode transceivers.
