[R-390] Hello New to list- More questions

[Glen Galati]

Hello Mike,
Your main Antenna for your FT-990 should also exit on the RX Ant Output of
which you would connect to the UNBALANCED type C connector on the rear of
the R-390/391 or the BNC ANT Jack on the R-392.  I would use the Type
UG-636/U RF Adapter which accepts a standard BNC male connector plug and
mates with the Type "C" UNBALANCED ANTENNA Connector on the rear of the
R-389, R-390, R-390A, and R-391 HF Receivers. This way you only need a small
length 50 Ohm Coax cable with a RCA male plug to mate with your Yaesu FT-990
to a BNC male connector plug that will mate with your other receivers.
Of note: Is must have the front RX ANT Push switch engaged.  Please consult
your FT-990 Manual and see if the REC ANT OUT Jack is "Muted" or
grounded-out during Transmit. If this is true, then you won't have to use
your AUX Receiver "BREAK-IN" FEATURE. I'm not positive about the latter and
maybe some one from the group can add the correct info on this ormake
comment. I haven't had my radio on line since 75.

73,
