The DX-Engineering RTR-1 is perfect for a rig that doesn't have a RX
only input. Before I got this I also used the T/R feature of the
MFJ-1026 by feeding the RX only antennas via a switch into the noise
antenna input. This also provides you with the ability to feed in the
TX antenna for some limited phasing out local noise. My model even has a
built in switchable pre-amp which can help on some RX only antennas as
you may require.

HI All
I would like to build a switch to switch in a receive antenna as my
radio doesn't have a receive antenna port. I'd like to build a
beverage for low band contesting. I have some 12 volt relays, but am
afraid the switching time would be too slow.
What would be a source of good, quick switching relays? Thanks and 73.
