[Elecraft] KXPA100

[Edward R Cole]

Quick question.  I have the KXAT100 installed which provides two 
antenna ports.  It switches between fine, but I note that it defaults 
back to ANT1 when amp power is shut off on front panel.

I have a 80/40m invert-V attached to ANT1 and a SP4T relay attached 
to ANT2.  The relay permits choosing my triband yagi or two different 
6m yagis, fourth port NC.

There are times I would like to monitor in Rx one of the ANT2 
antennas but have to have amp powered ON to do that.  Is this 
normal?  No problem monitoring 40 or 80m but inconvenient that I have 
to have the amp turned on for other bands.

Yes, I could just use ANT1 to the SP4T but saving  tuning info is 
nice with the two ports.  Invert-V is run in bypass while other bands in MAN.
