Hi Scott Haven't done it myself, but I've read descriptions where others have done it with relays. One radio would be connected to the feedline, and the other radio would be connected to a dummy load. At the throw of a switch, their connections would be reversed. That should provide all the protection you would need, plus be more convenient just having a switch at the operating position, instead of a manual coax switch with three coax runs to it.
Good luck and 73 Bob N6WG ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott McDowell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Friday, April 18, 2008 7:55 PM Subject: [Elecraft] two transceivers and one antenna > Hi > I need some ones opinion on something I am thinking about doing. > I sure hate to have to say, I wish I hadn't done that! > I have two transceivers and one multi-band yagis antenna. > Switching the coax from one rig to the other gets to be a hassle. > I've been thinking about getting a coaxial switch with > two outputs and one input.
