[Elecraft] [K3] Diversity antenna experiences?

[ai2n at twcny.rr.com]

I just disconnect the L from the coax center conductor AND the beta match coil using a heavy duty open frame relay.  Works for me.  Make sure the relay contacts get closed before the tx RF arrives.  I use K6XX's relay accelerator  http://members.cruzio.com/~k6xx/radio/fastrely.pdf
