[Elecraft] KX3 / K3 Antenna Sharing

[Jim Bennett]

Thanks for the info all -

I looked at that Bird 6 position switch - about 1/2 the cost of my KX3 - yikes! Think I'll pass on that one. I do have a Daiwa 2 position switch that I've hooked up to share my antenna - one side to the K3, the other to the KX3. Seems to work OK, although when a strong signal (S9+) on the K3, I can still hear it when the switch is set to the KX3. I wonder if the Alpha/Delta switches have any better isolation that thiat

I do not use coax switches at QRO levels but I only run that on 6m and 2m with dedicated antenna so no switching is needed (I do use coax relays).
