Switching several Kilovolts must surely be done with an expensive vacuum relay? You certainly cannot switch the HV transformer primary on and off every time you cycle between xmit and receive, because of the HV capacitor current inrush. 73 Angel Vilaseca HB9SLV _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps |
