1.3 Caution: Aerial Load
The equipment has been designed to operate safely under a wide range of aerial loading
conditions. However, we strongly recommend that the transmitter should always be
operated with a suitable load to prevent damage to the transmitter output power stage.
1.4 Caution: Beryllium Oxide and Power Transistors
The RF power transistors in current use all contain some beryllium oxide. This sub-
stance, while perfectly harmless in its normal solid form, can become a severe health
hazard when it has been reduced to dust. For this reason the RF power transistors
should not be broken open, mutilated, filed, machined, or physically damaged in any
way that can produce dust particles.
