Hello Everybody,

I would like to use the Drake R8 with a mil transceiver. The transceiver
has the PTT which is used also send CW. I have a Elad Switchbox,
http://www.woodboxradio.com/download/SwitchBoxManENG_Reducedv1.03.pdf, for
that, so I should be fine. If I connect everything according to the Elad
manual, the R8 should be protected but would not mute during TX. And I
would like to MUTE the R8.
The R8 REQUIRES GROUND MUTE. So I think to connect the MUTE of the R8 to
the PTT connector of the Elad Switchbox and the PTT of the Transceiver.
I checked the voltage of the PTT at the transceiver and it is about ten
volts. Would I make a damage connecting the PTT of the transceiver to the
mute of the R8, or it is the correct way to transceive?

Thanx for reading and 73,

Franco iz2oos
