Hello All:
I'm putting a NGEN and an XG-2 in a small project case. Assuming that both
devices would not be on at the same time, would there be some way to couple
the outputs to a single BNC connector, without using a switch, and without
degrading the performance of the XG-2?
Also will I
Paul,
I have thought about doing the same thing here, and have not yet done it -
for several reasons, time being a major one (but have since decided not to
do it that way).
I would hesitate to attempt to combine the BNC output jacks because you may
loose the calibrated output of the XG-2. If
Alan WB6ZQZ showed me that he uses Viewtainer brand clear plastic
tubes with caps for holding small boards. I put Alan's step-up balun
and Elecraft's BL2 in them when I am concerned about accidental
contact. They come in a variety of sizes and are sold for holding
screws etc. At hardware
I would be concerned about impedance mismatch caused by paralleling two low
impedance sources.
That would lead to degraded performance. What is so difficult about
providing a single pole, double throw switch to swap one BNC between the two
outputs? Or just mounting two BNC's? There are very
Under the Kiss principle, it would seem
two BNC connectors, one for each unique
function, would be appropriate and not at
all inconvenient. Keep 'em separated.

There are very tiny switches that would do the job of switching one
