[1000mp] MKV RX Relay Problem

[Garry Shapiro]

It could well be that different relays are intermittent in different radios.
I have never been able to conclusively isolate mine, because it always
occurs when operating!

So far this only occurs when I go from RX ANT to ANT A /B, and the
sensitivity is decreased on ANT A/B, hence I'm trying to pass DC
current through the ANT A/B contacts not the RX ANT contacts. If you
have intermittent reduced sensitivity on the RX ANT position then
that involves different contacts.

I've just tested it with clip leads on the bench so far. I can't see
any down side to applying a little DCI to the MKV ANTA/B terminal. I
will put it in an RF tight box in a few days and test it out.
