Tim's suggestion is what I've done at my station. I too would have prefered
setting up RX2 as the 6M receiver. However, since the preamp is connected
to the RX1 in/out ports, you need to use RX1 for 6M. Unfortunately, using
RX2 for the HF bands is not as convenient as RX1.
I know of no easy way to connect a 6M preamp to RX2, but may eventually bite
the bullet and install my own external relays. That way I can be monitoring
50.125 while operating HF on RX1.

The only options for the RX2 is ANT-1, RX2-IN and the RX1-TAP.
Why not put the HF on ANT-2 or ANT-3 and put 6m on ANT-1 and use the RX
loop for the preamp?

Subject: [Flexradio] Antenna Config Modes Questions
I would like to set up my 5000 that has an RX2 and the latest HRFIO to the
following;
Antenna 1 is hooked up to a SGC-239 remote tuner for all HF bands.
Antenna 3 is hooked up to stacked 6 meter loops and I have a DEMI preamp
on the RX1 & RX2 BNC ports on the 5000
Is it possible to have Antenna 1 going to RX1 (all HF bands) and Antenna 2
to RX2 is for 6 meters only?
I have read Different Antenna Configuration Modes for the FLEX-5000

but cannot see how to do what I want to do.
Thanks
