Craig,This is similar to my setup, except Ant 2 goes to a 1kw amp, and out a
SteppIR vertical, and Ant 1 goes straight to a little helical dipole. They're
about 100 ft apart, or so. Many other Flex RX2 are also run in an amplified
environment. Gerald has written that the receivers are robust, and there
should be no problems with such a setup. He gave a signal voltage number that
was reassuring, but I don't recall it. If you think about it, this is the same
as a multi-multi contest environment, or even a crowded Field Day. Ain't
blowed up yet, neither.I like what Tim said: that Flex is considering a
complete mechanical disconnect possibility, probably using the existing relays.
That's better than a simple "Mute RX2 when RX1 transmits" button. Jim KJ2P
