Greetings all,

The Dawg thread is almost as dangerous as the no-code thread on the BA 
list.  As I have fueled that fire enough already, I thought that I would 
ask something that has been on my mind for some time and only now, in an 
attempt to distract from the a.m. thread, will I ask it. 

Is it bad to connect antennas to both the twinax and type C connections at 
the same time.  One is a 300' long wire running along the top of my 6' 
wood fence in a three sided open-end, almost square loop. the other about 
100' wire in an open ended loop in the attic (originally installed by my 
grandfather for the "new" Grebe Syncrophase he had in the dark days of 
storage batteries.)   While thinking about it ,I realized there would be 
different issues based on the desired reception frequency and the 
mechanics of the "array",  at that point my brain started to hurt.   As 
far as the radio it self, have I violated one of the  R390(and "A") ten 
commandments?

 If I have asked this before, please remember that I'm now entering my mid 
40's.  Tease me about lost memory and tell me how it gets worse and we 
move on.
