My next door neighbor is a ham and recently upgraded to a Icom 7700, 200 watt.
The antennas for my K3 are pretty close to his. I have a set of dipoles (160, 75, 60 that share a common feedline) that are about 30 feet off one leg from the neighbor's HyTower (75 thru 10 full size vertical). I have a TH11DX up at 50 feet (boom is loaded for 40 meters also, separate feedline) and he has a TH5DX at very close to the same level, directly east of my tower, about 100 feet away. I have a Heathkit SB 220 amp (2 kw input?). Neighbor runs barefoot for now. So, my question is, do I need to be concerned about damage to either rig? I'm assuming that we can't operate the same bands at the same time. Our operating schedules seem to be very different for now. But I'm wondering if there could be input damage from one operating on any band, even if the rig is off. I was wondering if the K3 input is grounded through a relay when turned off, and similarly on the 7700. Any thoughts?
