KD9SV does, in fact, make a front end saver.

Subject: [TenTec] RX input Orion 1
In the upcoming 160M contest, I plan to TX on ANT 1.
My RX antenna is about 1/4 wave away (that is as far as I can get it
away from the TX anenna)and will likely couple a
considerable amount of energy from the TX antenna. No amp, barefoot.
I have the original Orion.
Does the radio short out or open the RX antenna input during TX?
