I'm using AUX RF. It has a COR too. I suffered a malfunction in this area which I really 
do not fully understand and the COR relay was damaged. After replacing the relay and 
making a few updates to my (beta test version) KRX3 that were recommended by Elecraft 
support, I am still a little nervous. So I added back-to-back diodes across the switch 
that I use to feed the auxiliary antenna input.
