OK.  Understood that you do not INTENTIONALLY run VOX...  but looking
at the front panel of my FT-736, there is a huge VOX button just asking
to be accidently pressed as one example.

I know I am being picky-- but I am trying to draw out the more elegant
solutions which solve this problem in the general case.

A sequencer that has a dummy load in it-- to take any RF that comes out
of the IF rig until all the sequencing is done seems close to my ideal
solution perhaps.  Then you are down to just racing the one relay that
switches the dummy load across the IF rig's output.

Thanks.
