Mark, I'm planning to install an RX only antenna. I will have a relay to detach and ground this antenna, if the TX signal of one of the stations goes active. This implies two things: the TX active signals have to appear earlier than the HF power - which is the case with both the SDR-1000 and the Kachina , I'm not yet sure with the FT817 - and secondly you don't want to use the RX only antenna on other bands while you are transmitting. In my case, I will leave the 817 out of this concideration, as I use it for packet radio, plus my RX only antenna has an over-voltage protection against too strong signals, and I would not connect it to the 817. I fully agree that one has to have it fool-proof. 73s, Luer, DF5TP -------------- next part -------------- An embedded message was scrubbed...
