[AMRadio] Possible switch for ladder line use

[Rick]

Hi Geoff.

 

I agree it would be much easier to have only one tuner instead of using one
for each station, however, the physical distance between them makes that all
but impossible. I have a Bauer 707 on one end and BC-610's on the other with
the Ranger in another location and plastic radios in yet another area of the
shack. I know it would make little or no difference, but I also want to use
as little coax as possible and having a tuner for each radio sitting next to
or right above it means I can have only a very short jumper to the radio.

I'm confused, Rick... why have different tuners for each rig, when you
can simply run 50ohm coax from each xmtr/rcvr combo to -one- tuner, as
suggested, using one coax switch?

Of course, to each their own, but one tuner for multiple rigs, on one
antenna makes more sense to me, but that's just me.
