Many amps rely on that ALC connection to allow them to cut back on
drive in the event of a malfunction such as an intermittent flaky
antenna feedline. A momentarily open/shorted antenna could be very
bad news for some amps under normal drive.
Some argue that you don't really need ALC. I suspect those guys never
had an antenna disaster.
Good luck

Have a small amp that I want to use on the 1500 but do not see any
ALC output to connect to the Amp, however since the oiutput is only
5 watts, is this a problem? I intend to connect the PTT circuit to
the amp for on/off control.
Thanks for your help.
