Ten tec Centaur amp problem
« on: April 01, 2023, 10:56:20 AM »

recently acquired a Ten Tec Centaur amp. I connected it to my Omni VI In accordance with the manual. When turn the amp on the radio goes into TX without keying the amp and locks until I turn the radio off. Ironically when connect my Flex 6500 only to the key line it works fine.

Any guidance would be appreciated

 ;)According to the Centaur manual the system works on an keying loop, so two cables required for keying, From Rig, TX OUT - Key IN on AMP. from AMP, Key OUT -TX En.
Switch on Omni set to QSK .
