Andy,

If you have only one antenna, you could use a "Y" cable from the antenna to
*both* antenna jacks on the KAT2. You could then tune up antennas 1 and 2 at
different ends of the band, and instantly switch between them using ANT 1/2.
It's the next best thing to having full access to your overworked K2 firmware
guy  ;)
