Since the Invader 2000 has 2 antenna coax jacks, one for low power and
one for high power, I am trying to devise a switching arrangement that
will change the antenna coax from one to the other without my intervention.
What I have come up with is;
Use my B&W TR switch and a DowKey 110V antenna relay. The antenna and
receiver are connected to the TR switch. The transmitter input of the
TR switch is connected to the antenna connection of the DowKey relay.
The NC connection of the DowKey, normally the receiver jack, is
connected to the low power output, and the NO connection, normally the
transmitter jack, is connected to the high power output. Relay power is
supplied from the fan circuit of the amp when the amp section is turned.
This switches the antenna connection of the DowKey and all I have to
do is to turn the loading control to the amp position.
Are there any problems with this or has someone come up with a better
solution?
