Terminal information

Consider the following points when using a non-Icom
transceiver.

Start voltage [STAR]

When a start voltage (less than 1 V) is received, the
AT-141 begins automatic tuning.

Key voltage [KEY]

During automatic tuning, the AT-141 grounds the key
voltage line, and the HF transceiver reduces output
power.
