FT-767GX, IC-271/471, IC-7000, only my IC-9100 can do this (Set Mode items 45/46/47 'pre-amp', unknown voltage/max-current as manual does not state).  

Hence why most older radios need to have a shack external coax-VDC injector/RF-filter device to make work.

What rig are you using in the shack?  Many of them have the option to
power a pre-amp via the coax, though sometimes this requires opening the
box up to move a jumper.
