The TS-850S doesn't have such an output, at least not according to the manual that came with mine. So you need to make or acquire an attenuator as Don suggested. However, you might want to consider a 20 dB attenuator, just in case you accidentally forget to lower the TS-850S power when you go from HF to the transverter. You can still run the TS-850S at 10 watts or so and keep the XV-222 happy, but your XV-222 may be better protected this way. This'll keep things running until your friend sees the light and gets a K2 :-) Enjoy!
