[amsat-bb] Re: ARR pre amp Query

[Jeff Mock]

You can also power it from the coax to the radio.  If you have something 
like an Icom 910 it's very nice, the preamp button on the radio will put 
12v on the coax and power the ARR preamp or bypass the preamp as you 
like.  You don't need to use the power connector.
