Guys,
I thought he said RX antenna input. The COR is on the aux ant input.
There is no COR on the RX antenna input (it's not needed, I think.)

Hi Steve,
It is separated by a relay but that doesn't mean that you can't damage
internal circuitry. If you hear relay clicking sounds while you are
transmitting then you have tripped the protective COR (carrier-operated
relay). If this occurs then you need to reducer power or separate your
antennas more, and/or provide external protection.
The diagram on page 42 of the K3 manual illustrates the presence of the
COR(s).

Am I correct in assuming that the Rec Ant input is disconnected from the
main receiver input upon transmit by way of a relay? If so, can I further
assume that connecting a beverage, or other receive antenna, to the
Receive Ant input will cause no harm to the main receiver upon transmit?
In other words, is a relay enough protection?
I ask because I would like to rule out needing an external protection
device when using a beverage antenna. I run full legal power.
Thanks in advance.
73, Steve, K4FJ
