Each rig here uses an ICE # 196 "Front End Protector ... as well
as Dunestar 600 bandpass filters.
Key is to measure the amount of RF coming back down/into the
coax line(s) on one rig when the other is transmitting.
Some have built a simple circuit of some diodes back to back
and a 1 watt resistor ... as in when the RF level exceeds a
certain level, the diodes conduct and the RF goes to the dummy
load (the 1 watt resistor).
Hope the helps ... the newer gear is NOT as rugged as the tube
stuff of years gone by in this area.
