- Anyone familiar with the Ameritron RCS-10 remote antenna coax switch? I am interested to know the design purpose(s) for having a 100K ohm 1 watt resistor (in most cases) between each (8) SO-239 cente

- I'll guess that it might bleed off static electricity, like the megohm resistor in my ESD wrist band... 73 de Dick, K6KR Anyone familiar with the Ameritron RCS-10 remote antenna coax switch? I am int

- I'd guess the same as Dick, Static electricity although I don't remember seeing any in mine. OTOH it's at 90 feet and I don't plan on going up to look. It's 34 degrees and supposed to dump a mix of r

- I believe the resistors are to discharge static electricity on antennas that are not grounded to DC. Without it voltages in excess of 1 kV can build up on the coax inner conductor. The resistance (10
