Just to wrap up this question for the benefit of anyone else who is interested or may search for this later…
Jack’s response prompted me to go back and take a second look at the schematics for the couplers. Somehow I missed this the first time through, but it would appear that the coupler will provide a short to ground for a DC bias voltage by way of the secondary winding in T1. So I’m going to take “no” for an answer here. ;-) I don’t think the HF couplers will pass a DC bias voltage on through like I had hoped. 73, David - N5DCH >> >> >>> On Jun 8, 2021, at 6:25 PM, Jack Brindle <jackbrin...@me.com> wrote: >>> >>> I believe the answer is yes.
