Vic, Yes, two relay boxes (actually I am using 4 in total - it may expand to 5 sometime). The KRC2 can switch multiple relay boxes - switch both boxes for any one band and then select between the relay boxes with the ANT1/2 selection. In fact, with the KRC2 there are both positive active (e

Bob, I see no real need for a bypass on just one of the tuner antenna jacks. In my mind it is already there, but better - just do a TUNE once on each band where your antenna is resonant and the K2 will remember - I regard that as better than a bypass function. 73, Don W3FPR Robert Tellefse

Bill I'd like to add to your list the ability to have the KAT2 autotuner be active on one antenna port and be bypassed on the other. I have some antennas that require the autotuner for a match, and others that are already a good match as they are. I'd also like to see an improvement in the cw cry
