Hello All,
I have been out of radio for 45 years, just getting back into it. My question is, can I run a RCI 69 Base Plus with a Carl Built 400 HD without any issues? I'm still trying to get my arms around all of this, please be patient. Thank You!
 

In both examples those radio's each have variable power. You can get by running a 4 pill amp with a higher powered radio IF you back the radio power down so as to not overdrive the amp.

I have no idea what the suggested input levels are with a Carl built but I would assume it would be the same as for an old X-Force amp. I would check with the amp builder and see what he suggests. Also if you plan on talking SSB I would have him do the class B with a switched delay switch upgrade.
