I just acquired a TenTec 1208 to use with my FT-1000MP MKV and I have a couple of questions.

I know that I have to detune the rig to 5-7 watts to use the 1208

My main question is:

If I hook up to the 'HF' antenna port and switch over to 'bypass' can I still use my 200W output into the bypass of the inverter, or
do I need to put a coax switch inline and completely bypass the inverter?

My next question is does anyone have a 6 meter vertical they would part with?

 28"Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to
complete it? 29For if he lays the foundation and is not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule him, 30saying, 'This
fellow began to build and was not able to finish.'
