Asunto: Re: [TowerTalk] 2 antennas selection
Tom VE3CX gives a good solution.
Another possibility is to use the Top Ten A/B switch (see HYPERLINK
"http://www.qth.com/topten/abss.htm"http://www.qth.com/topten/abss.htm) for
each band you have two antennas, and put this before (the antenna side) of
the Sixpak.
I chose something similar to Tom's suggestion to use two sixpacks, but
instead, I homebrewed a ten-pack. I also have a "primary/secondary" toggle
switch with throws a small 4PDT relay. The common is the band decoder
output, the NC goes to my primary antenna select control signal to the
ten-pack, the NC contact goes to the secondary antenna's control signal to
the ten-pack. Whenever I'm on a band that has two antennas, regardless of
band, this single switch will take me from my main antenna to my secondary
antenna. I have another primary/secondary switch on my 2nd radio's as well.
Upon reflection, you could also send these control signals to the A/B
switches above and just use one sixpack.
The benefits of using two sixpacks (or similar) is that you can listen on
the other radio on the same band. The A/B method doesn't allow this.

Hello,
i have a new sixpack. It have to connect one antenna per band, 10 to 160.
I have 2 antennas per band for example in 40 and 20 mts. So I am looking for
a device that allows me to select one of this two same band antennas, just
with a small cable to the desk.
I can add a 2 positions Daiwa antenna selector, but I want to avoid the
coaxial in front of the operation position (I need the Daiwa in front of me
to change antennas)
So maybe is something to do that, just connect the antennas in the wall with
the sixpack and a wire with a switch to change antennas for this bands where
I have more than one antenna.
Thanks,
Jorge
