[TMRA] Schottky diode question sorta

[Richard D. Brownlee]

I once had a receiver and a transmitter on the same antenna.  It was wired
so that when I hit the push to talk button, an antenna switch directed the
antenna to the transmitter, and isolated the receiver.  I have not seen one
of those switches in a long time.  As a novice in 1980, I was using gear
from the 1950's; prior to that I used a manual antenna switch.

Subject: [TMRA] Schottky diode question sorta

I have 1 radio that I want to use to receive only(HF). I have 1 radio that I

want to transceive(HF). I have one antenna and feed line. Can I use a diode 
and T the two radios together without overloading (damaging) the receiver 
when I transmit?
Thanks in advance.
