Description
High quality relay buffer to interface between Kenwood TS-790 radio and will key any VHF/UHF amplifier.The Kenwood TS-790 can only provide for a small amount of current on the external amplifier keying output.
Our box will key ANY amplifier and isolate the sensitive keying circuit inside the TS-790
This relay interface box has the genuine Kenwood plug to connect into the Ext. Control jack on the back of the TS-790 TS-790A for keying VHF and UHF amps. This can also be used to switch other devices instead of an RF power amplifier. The RBI-790 has THREE completely separate relay circuits to completely isolate each RF power amplifier.
When you are on 2M (144 Mhz) only the 144 MHz amplifier output jack is switched
When you are on 70cm (430 Mhz) only the 430 MHz amplifier output jack is switched
When you are on 23cm (1296 Mhz) only the 1296 MHz amplifier output jack is switched
(If you desire having all three relays keyed at the same time when VHF/UHF radio band is keyed, see our less expensive ebay listing for the TS-790 relay interface.)

This is not one of those types that make you use a battery to power the unit! This high quality device is power by your station power supply or any filtered DC source from 9-15 VDC (only 40ma required)
When connecting your Radio and Amplifier, there may be switching voltage, polarity, and current incompatibility that can cause damage to your radio or amplifier if connected without a switching interface between them. Even if your internal radio switching looks like it might be usable, it is wise to have an extra degree of isolation between your amplifier and radio with our relay buffer interface.
