You can also just run a small rg174 coax from the sub-receiver antenna connection to the spare jack. Then select no antenna at all for the sub and connect an antenna for the sub to the spare jack.

This is exactly how I use an SDRplay as a panadapter with my Orion.

I have this written up in the manual for my N4PY Orion software. You can download this manual from my website at n4py.com

The antenna connection to the sub-receiver is very obvious when you
look at the sub-receiver. You can pull the connector and put another
on there that goes to the spare jack in the back. That will do it.

Does anyone have a Mod or even a thought of a way to add a second
RECEIVE only port for the Sub receiver,.On an Orion 2,. at present I can
only use Ant 2 to select a diversity receive antenna to the SUB
receiver..but was wanting to use antenna 2 for another antenna on a
different band ,so dont want to tie up Antenna 2 jack for diversity
receive.
I dont care if any mod would allow the sub receiver to only have the
separate receive port,, I only use sub receiver for diversity..
Any thoughts would be appreciated..
Thanks
