By the way Buck, there is more to this than some people will tell you.
The DXE switch uses a unique RF limiter that kicks in hard at about 23 dBm.
Below that level there is no intermod at all!! It will not deteriorate the
receiver, like normal cheap back-to-back diode systems.
If you need a receiver limiter and do not want to hurt receiver dynamic
range on modern receivers, it takes far more circuitry than cheap
back-to-back diodes.
