[ICOM] IC-756PRO2

[Mike McCarthy, W1NR]

The two coax connectors are TX/RX, corresponding to ANT1 and ANT2.  The RX
only jack is separate and is enabled when the /R is selected.  In other
words, when ANT1/R is selected, coax jack ANT1 is TX and RX is off the RCA
RX connector.  See page 12 of the manual.

Hi all,

I am just arrived to the list and would like to ask you something about the
756PRO2. It has in its rear panel 2 coax-in conections, 1 for TX and 1 for
RX. OK, when I push in the front panel ANT 1, it changes to RX antenna, ANT
2, and when I keep pushed ANT 1 for a second it says ANT 1/R. It is suposed
when it says ANT 1/R or ANT 2 /R, that that antenna will be used on the RX
antenna (RX connector). But I havent noticed any changes, just hear
nothing...! Also, if I am in ANT 2/R and push the key to send, it doesnt
changes automatically to ANT 1, (TX connector) or......is this feature not
available..? I thought that when you are in "RX" mode (ANT2/R), and pushed
the PTT it would change to TX antenna (ANT1) automatically. Am I doing
something wrong here..? I would like to play with that because I am building
2 RX antennas and would like NOT to change from ANT1 to ANT2/R manually, if
possible..! Any help..? Thanks!
