[Elecraft] K3 Ant2 Issue With KPA500

[James Bennett]

I’ll give the MFJ product a try. Hopefully the quality will be OK - one never knows what you’ll get with their stuff! But if this works I’ll be a happy camper.

Thanks Gus

What “should” work is to have a coax switch that completely takes the FEP out of the circuit, basically a “ganged” coax switch, for lack of a better term. When set to one position, the FEP is in the circuit between the vertical and ANT2, and when in the other position, the vertical would be connected directly to ANT2. This action could be done with two individual switches, but would make things easier if I could locate an SO-239-based coax switch that switches two ports at the same time. Anyone know if such a device exists, and it so, where it might be sold?
