SB-1000 driven by solid state exciter?

[Gerald C. Lemay]

Shouldn't be a problem. I am using one with Yaesu's FT-920. On my rig there
is a switch on the back to configure it for relay switching. Don't know if
that's the case with the 757.

Hello to the group.
Can anyone offer opinions if it is safe for a Yaesu FT 757 to drive an
SB-1000 linear without using the yaesu relay box.  Is the SB-1000 modern
enough to not draw all the current through its switching relay?
Thanks for all comments and info.
