Ray,

How much impact does PIN diode switching have on the noise floor? Is that
impact on receive or transmit? Over what frequency bandwidth? What impact
would it have on a 500hz bandwidth?

Also, when operating full duplex with separate receive and transmit
antennas, is relay closure still required for transmit?

There is a GPS clock option. Was a PIN diode option considered for CW/FSK
users?

Thanks,
Ed W2RF

Ed,

In the interest of the lowest noise floor possible, they chose reed relays
over solid-state switching.
