[TowerTalk] WTD: Rotator inexpensive for 36" Mag Loop PixelTech

[john at kk9a.com]

Are you sure that you are not looking for an inexpensive rotor? :)

Does the Pro3 have a RX jack.  If so you can plug the loop into it and set
the radio to use that antenna for receive. When using separate receive
antennas it is possible to overload the front end on some radios when
transmitting since they are still connected. An easy solution is to short
the RX antenna when transmitting.

I am looking for an inexpensive rotator to swing my new Pixel Technologies
Magnetic Loop.

Any Suggestions?


2.  Also, wanting to hook this up to my Pro3/KPA500/Kessler AT-Auto.

any suggestions on this ? Not a whole lot in the pamphlet which came with
the antenna. Can the Pro3 be made to automatically flip to a receive
antenna when not transmitting?


Thanks
