[1000mp] Antenna relays

[Tod -ID]

Hi Jürgen.

Thanks for the suggestion. I don't have any external relays or switches on
the antennas this year. [Thank goodness because we are starting to get daily
highs in the single digits <above zero F though>]

I am pretty sure that it is internal to the rig which is why I put the query
out on the reflector. 

73, Tod, K0TO
