Please run your data through??
I have a 3.8 dBi 2 meter antenna and at 10w they called for 2.34' in a controlled environment.
Your soft tissues might thank you later.? ?

The FT-847 does not have an ACC jack, and the necessary TX-REQ signal is not on any other connector pin;? so there is no way to interface the FT-847 to the LDG AT-200ProII. ? Unlike the FT847, the FT-857D has a 3.5mm ACC jack, where the ring (TX-REQ) connects to the LDG _KEY signal (3.5mm TRS TIP),?and the sleeve is common, using the LDG Y-ACC cable.?? ? FYI: On LDG auto-tuners with 3.5mm jack, tip is _KEY,? ring is _START,? and sleeve is GND.? A description of the _START and _KEY signal operation on the Icom and LDG antenna tuners is on page 6 of
