21. [TowerTalk] relays (score: 1)
Author: w2up@itw.com (Barry Kutner)
Date: Fri, 10 Apr 1998 21:44:30 +0000
I would like to install some relays on my 80m 1/2 wave slopers to allow in-the-shack switching from CW to SSB (rather than running ouside and folding back the wires as I do now). Being that the end o

Check the range of your cordless phones first. An older (49 MHz) phone probably will be out of range. The 900 MHz phone may be OK, depending on your tower height and distance from base unit. 73 Barry
