[Elecraft] Minicircuits splitter for diversity?

[Cady, Fred]

Jim may be wanting to use a RX antenna (to use as an RX antenna connected to the RX ANT input) at times plus wanting to use it at other times for diversity connected to the AUX RF BNC input.

I can't tell you anything about that splitter, though.

Cheers,

Fred KE7X

Jim,

I don't understand how that will help with diversity.
You need two antennas that are oriented differently - usually one for
horizontal polarization and the other for vertical polarization.

One is connected to the subRX AUX antenna connection and the other
connects to the main RX.  If the one connected to the
main is not your transmit antenna, connect it to the RX IN antenna
connection.
